The relevant code is: while (len > PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD) { p.proto.is_last = (dest == LOG_DESTINATION_CSVLOG ? 'F' : 'f'); p.proto.len = PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD; memcpy(p.proto.data, data, PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD); write(fd, &p, PIPE_HEADER_SIZE + PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD); data += PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD; len -= PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD; } Which it seems to me we could change by doing rc = write(). Then if rc <= 0, we bail out. If not, we add and subtract rc, rather than PIPE_MAX_PAYLOAD. That would be barely more code, probably safer, and would silence the warning. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
