From 751a2fa915bc73e45e4914a26ddb3d1cb3e6a653 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Marriott Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2009 23:49:25 +0000 Subject: Fix a race condition when asking a client to take over the terminal (switching to a different poll loop): If a MSG_READY was followed very quickly by a MSG_EXIT (for example if doing "tmux new 'exit'"), both messages could be read as part of the same imsg_read in the first client poll loop. The MSG_READY would then cause a switch to the second client loop, which would immediately call poll(2) again, causing the client to hang forever waiting for an exit message that it already had. Change to call imsg_get to process any existing messages before polling. --- client.c | 23 ++++++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) (limited to 'client.c') diff --git a/client.c b/client.c index 8724c35e..abf2f782 100644 --- a/client.c +++ b/client.c @@ -152,12 +152,21 @@ int client_main(struct client_ctx *cctx) { struct pollfd pfd; - int nfds; + int n, nfds; siginit(); logfile("client"); + /* + * imsg_read in the first client poll loop (before the terminal has + * been initialiased) may have read messages into the buffer after the + * MSG_READY switched to here.
