https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243177 --- Comment #5 from Ronald F. Guilmette <rfg-freebsd@tristatelogic.com> --- At this point, after waiting more than 4.75 years for anyone to even just look at this PR, I'm not inclined to spend much time debating the merits of implementing something like the suggested O_CREATFIFO flag. I will just offer the (closing?) observation that the O_CREAT flag was created for a very good reason and that reason, it seems to me, must necessarily apply equally well to both regular files AND fifos. I am not seeing a clear argument to the contrary. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
