I have just written two quick-and-dirty test cases:

http://people.freebsd.org/~davidxu/patch/fifopipe/fifo_selectwrite.c

without patch for kernel code, a child process will print out "timeout".

I have updated patch, the patch fixed lost-notification bug for select():
http://people.freebsd.org/~davidxu/patch/fifopipe/kernel_pipe2.diff

So it was a bug in the new pipe code.

My patch only fixes the lost of notification, it is not intent to fix the problems in /usr/src/tools/regression/poll tests, I think those are other more detailed
implementation problems.

The test seemed to work under FreeBSD-~5.2 but was hard to configure.
It gave lots of abort traps.  One was for the big buffer.  This is too
big for -current too, and causes a mysterious abort trap with no core,
before exec.  truss, gdb and bde were confused.

I am sorry that you were confused, I have updated fifo_selectread.c, it had a large buffer which is a left-over from my another local program, I have removed the buffer.
