System calls are atomic relative to each other. They may be partially executed from the perspective of a remote system, e.g. due to segmentation, but one system call will finish before the next call of the same category is started. > Specifically, will multiple write() or send() calls on the same > socket execute serially (i.e. not interfere with each other) and > blocking (until completion) even for large buffer sizes? What about > read() / recv()? All write operations are serialised against each other, just like all read operations are serialised against.
