Are you saying functions that return EINTR but do not block aren't even part of the task? Ok, can you please tell me which of the functions I've linked on IRC I should test then? I can find out which one of those block, but I don't know about syscalls. Can you tell me how I could discern betwen them? Thanks. Luka
