Hi Noa,

For some reason beyond my understanding I decided that I should devote some of my very few hacking cycles to kaffe. However, being sort of a newbie in the JVM hacking business I didn't feel comfortable doing anything before I could regression test any contributions. So I had a look at mauve and got it to work with kaffe-1.1.4. kaffe from cvs HEAD on the other hand hang on a java.net.DatagramSocket test.
Great ! :) Feel free to debug everything you see. ;)
Wow, thanks a lot for fixing that one!It's been a long time bug that noone got around to fix. Thanks again!
Feel free to improve anything else you come across, your debut was very good ;)
Issues:
- is poll() available on all relevant systems?
I believe that it is available with pthreads.
Hmm... I'd prefer kaffe provide another implementation using select too. According to man-page, poll is conforming to XPG4-UNIX and I don't think it is linked to pthreads.
- should the socket be permanently non blocking?
I've CC:ed Tim Stack[1] & Guilhem Lavaux on that one.
Socket should be blocking by default. It is necessary for the other syscalls. BTW, you may be interested by the jthread_set_blocking function (available for both jthreads and pthreads for external usage) which sets the blocking state of the fd (virtually for jthreads and natively for pthreads).
Cheers,
Guilhem Lavaux.
