Subject: [PATCH] gcf2: improve error handling and do not ->fail on wbuf
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2020 22:12:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200927221248.28815-1-e@80x24.org> (raw)

For historical reasons, both Danga::Socket::write and
PublicInbox::DS::write will return 0 when data is buffered;
so we Gcf2Client must not call ->fail when DS::write returns 0.

We'll also improve robustness by recreating the entire
Gcf2Client object if it does die for other reasons, instead of
risking mismatched fields.

We also need to ensure we only get one EPOLLERR wakeup and
issue EPOLL_CTL_DEL if ->event_step is triggered by a dying
Gcf2 process.
