Just to follow up on this.. I did take your advice fully Dave, and decided
to just modify the partial iovec in place and restore a copy of it after
handling the partial situation. Reason being that it's beneficial to set
an iovec array once and pass it to read or writev on every call (if one
is using relatively non changing locations assigned to each iov_base per
vector - if not, it still works anyways). So far so good, I setup a test
case and have transfered over 20,000,000 records via 6 iovecs each at
around ~20-70 bytes average record size. I've also verified that partials
are occuring, in addition to both mid-vector and mid-array. 200K/sec - so
I think we can rest assured race conditions are out of the picture. My
code was the culprit, cygwin's was not :).
In case anyone needs the code for any purpose (I know that I searched usenet
and web quite a bit looking for any references to short|trunc|partial, etc.
WRT readv()/writev() and found very little, so this may come in handy to
others.
