New submission from Ross Lagerwall <rosslagerw...@gmail.com>: Attached is a patch which implements os.sendfile for unix systems (linux, freebsd, apple, solaris, dragonfly).
It takes the iov initialization code and off_t parsing from i10812. It encapsulates all the functionality from the various sendfiles which means a fair amount of #ifdefs but the basic case works for all of them. Tested on Linux & FreeBSD - it should work on solaris but since it needs to link with the sendfile library and I have no idea how to link the posix module with the sendfile library only on Solaris, i couldn't test it. If someone could please contribute this... I think it might be possible to get a Windows equivalent of this - i'll leave it for someone else to do ;-) ---------- components: Extension Modules files: sendfile.patch keywords: patch messages: 125924 nosy: giampaolo.rodola, loewis, pitrou, rosslagerwall priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add os.sendfile() type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20338/sendfile.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10882> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
