[Bug 257368] ggate(d) misbehaving

> Looks like the code is expecting to be able to send/receive pretty huge packets as is, instead of breaking it up into smaller chunks.

Ignore that, found the helper function that breaks it up.


Here's a truss of ggated:

We can see that ggated allocs a big chunk of mem and successfully reads data
into it and then tries to send it off, in chunks of 128kB. So far so good.
But then the receive thread notices that it did not read a full header and thus
exits and the whole process dies only having sent 4x128kB.

Smells like a race condition?
