write() system call(via rdma_get_cm_event) is not honoring a signal with flag SA_RESTART.

Hans,

I think it's not a regression.

To verify it I have fetched the latest sources(both FreeBSD & OFED 3.2) and started building...
 Between, may I know when will OFED 3.2 patches be pushed to upstream?

Also, before started building,  I'd quickly replaced -ERESTARTSYS with -512 in ucma_get_event, I still don't see the write() system call getting restarted.

Here are the return codes:
ucma_get_event, returns -512
rdma_get_cm_event, returns -1, errorno: 512

So can FreeBSD understand the interrupted system call return value(-512) like Linux?

Thanks,
Krishna.

Hi,

Is this a regression issue?

ERESTARTSYS was previously defined incorrectly like a negative error code. This was fixed in:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/299641

Was your testing done with r299641 ? Can you check the error code you get in userspace?
