What kind of fd is this? Linux?
Yes. There's a class named Prong that creates a one-way pipe for sending
a notification to the Ruby thread to wake it up. The pipe is created
using the pipe() API, then fcntl() to make the descriptor non-blocking.
The symptom sounds like what would happen if a TCP socket write were done
and TCP buffered the byte. Setting no-delay on the socket would resolve
that.
I tried adding O_NDELAY to the flags for the fds and it made no
difference:
flags = ::fcntl(yourHandle, F_GETFL);
if((::fcntl(yourHandle, F_SETFL, flags | O_NONBLOCK | O_NDELAY))== -1)
throw MessagingException("Unable to make your handle non-blocking.");
Sounds like you are doing something very similar to qpid::sys::PollableQueue or
qpid::sys::Condition. You might be able to cut/paste some of the code.
PollableCondition exposes an FD to be added to qpid::sys::Poller. The FD is
readable iff the condition is set.
PollableQueue is a work queue that uses a PollableCondition so that it is
pollable iff there is data in the queue.
