Re: Cygwin1.dll 1.7.0-5x: RSYNC failures in close() system call on pipe file descriptors


For the sake of completeness...

I wrote:

May you give some more details? For example, should I rebuild under
Cygwin-1.5 or 1.7? with cygport (but which uses rsync, sigh!)? which
patch to apply?...

I have rebuilt rsync-3.05 both on Cygwin-1.5 and 1.7 applying this patch:

        int ret;

-#ifdef HAVE_SOCKETPAIR
-       ret = socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fd);
-#else
        ret = pipe(fd);
-#endif

        if (ret == 0) {
                set_nonblocking(fd[0]);

Using the resulting binaries on Cygwin-1.7, there is a little step
forward. Now

$ ./rsync -av downloads /tmp

works, but

./rsync -av --delete --exclude=.svn tug.org::tldevsrc/Build/source/ /tmp/tl-src

does NOT! :-(


Cheers, Angelo.
