BUG?: Dsync over piped process (DSYNC_RUN_TYPE_CMD): EPIPE if X (done) is received in another write after F (finish)

Hi,

It appears that dsync closes the file handle once it gets the F (finish) response even if it hasn’t received the X (done) response. If the X (done) response gets delivered in another write this will generate EPIPE in the connected process.

This is much easier to replicate over SSL, however the trace is provided without SSL since its easier to see whats going on.

Thanks J. Nick Koston

STRACE where its in one packet:
