So that's this code:
# ifdef USE_UDP_SIGPOLL
{
if (ioctl(fd, I_SETSIG, S_INPUT) < 0)
{
msyslog(LOG_ERR,
"init_socket_sig: ioctl(I_SETSIG, S_INPUT)
failed: %m");
exit(1);
}
}
I think I saw an upstream bug report about disabling that for
Solaris. Maybe USE_UDP_SIGPOLL should get disabled for
kFreeBSD too?
Do you have any idea if this is kFreeBSD specific? I doubt
that a normal FreeBSD system has a problem with that since
upstream probably tests that more than anything else.
