X-Git-Tag: 1.10.9~24 X-Git-Url: http://git.annexia.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=914d1378b2eaf1dd439ebc562b0baa10127bd4f7;p=libguestfs.git protocol: Fix case where download can fail for small files. There is another case where downloads of small files could fail if the library side (writer) fails. In this case the library would send back a cancellation, but it would be received after the daemon had finished sending the whole file (because the file is small enough). The daemon would reenter the main loop and immediately get an unexpected cancel message, causing the daemon to die. This commit also makes test-cancellation-download-librarycancels.sh more robust. We use Monte-Carlo testing with a range of file sizes. Small file sizes should trigger the error case.
