Gnulib module: stdio, nonblocking

Portability problems fixed by Gnulib module @code{stdio}, together with module @code{nonblocking}:

|
|
When reading from a non-blocking pipe whose buffer is empty, this function
|
|
fails with @code{errno} being set to @code{EINVAL} instead of @code{EAGAIN} on
|
|
some platforms:
|
|
mingw, MSVC 9.

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

C99 and POSIX.1-2001 and later require end-of-file to be sticky, that
|
|
is, they require this function to act as if it reads end-of-file if
|
|
@code{feof} would return nonzero. However, on some systems this
|
|
function attempts to read from the underlying file descriptor even if
|
|
the stream's end-of-file indicator is set. These systems include
|
|
glibc and default Solaris.
|
|
@item
|
|
On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), this function does not set @code{errno}
|
|
upon failure.
