Looking at the code it looks like it would be possible for there to be <12 bytes in the socket, so the read will return less that 12 bytes (because you got very unlucky and the bytes were split across two packets).
Looking at the code fixing that assumption will be a bit of a pain. Ali On 11/25/14, 5:21 AM, "Gabe Black via gem5-dev" <gem5-dev@gem5.org> wrote: >Hi folks.
