[PATCH for-4.19 3/3] tools/libxs: Fix CLOEXEC handling in xs_fileno()
Posted by Andrew Cooper 2 months, 2 weeks ago
xs_fileno() opens a pipe on first use to communicate between the watch thread
and the main thread.  Nothing ever sets CLOEXEC on the file descriptors.

Check for the availability of the pipe2() function with configure.  Despite
starting life as Linux-only, FreeBSD and NetBSD have gained it.

When pipe2() isn't available, try our best with pipe() and set_cloexec().
