Next step would be :
1) write a program writing to stdout and dropping the actual error message
somewhere.
How about this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#define LOGFILE "/stdouttest.log"
#define TESTMSG "This is a test string\n"
int
main(int argc, char **argv, char **envp)
{
FILE *logfile;
int printerrno;
char *printerror;
int retval = EXIT_FAILURE;
int result;
/* Setup a log file */
logfile = fopen(LOGFILE, "a");
if (!logfile)
exit(retval);
fprintf(logfile, "Program %s started\n", argv[0]);
/* Print to stdout */
result = fprintf(stdout, TESTMSG);
/* Log results */
if (result < 0) {
printerrno = errno;
printerror = strerror(printerrno);
fprintf(logfile, "Printing failed (%i): %s\n",
printerrno, printerror);
} else if (result < strlen(TESTMSG)) {
fprintf(logfile, "Printing was truncated to %i bytes\n",
result);
} else {
fprintf(logfile, "Printing successful\n");
retval = EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
/* We're done */
fclose(logfile);
exit(retval);
}
2) contact udev author and ask for his help, since Marco said he didn't have
a further clue, and this may be an upstream problem.
Sounds like a good idea...the upstream mailing list is very active.
