Just an update w.r.t ifhp-3.4.2:
Checked out ifhp-3.4.2, but it looks like the symptoms are still around.
The relevant line of code change (in ifhp.c, in Do_waitend()):
if( len ) break;
changed to:
if( len < 0 ) break;
Still does not fix the waitend/waitend_interval problem. "len" has been
set to -1 by Write_read_timeout() after "waitend_interval" has elapsed.
So, either "if" conditions produces the same result.
It seems to me that the quickest fixes are:
1) Infinite loop until printer responds with what we are looking for:
if( len < 0 ) goto again;
2) Reset "timeout" to "waitend_interval" every time something is received
from the printer. This will JFAIL only after "waitend_interval" has
elapsed _without_ any response from the printer (e.g., pagecount
updates).
