If the client is the kernel that's true. If the client is directly speaking 9P that's true again. But if the client is a userspace program using pread/pwrite that wouldn't work unless it fork a new process per each read as the syscalls blocks. Which is what fcp does, actually: https://github.com/brho/plan9/blob/master/sys/src/cmd/fcp.c Giacomo
