[ProgSoc] Pipe/socket read()/write() locking on linux
Hi all,
Can anyone explain, or direct me to a document that explains how read()
and write() access to socket/pipe file descriptors is sychronised on linux?
There must be some kind of mutex involved, right? Are they read/write
mutexes?
How do these mutexes compare with in-process ones, such as those
provided by pthreads?
Cheers,
Jay.
