If the tape drive failed close() in a way that did not deallocate the file descriptor, that was just straight up a bug. Retrying close() is dangerous, if the file descriptor was successfully deallocated, it might have already been re-allocated by another thread. I'd guess the program you're describing was single threaded though (it can still bite there though) |
