Is that the exact message you're getting?  Nothing like that message 
seems to be in the source code.


Can you run the following command instead?

   strace -o tr dd ibs=20b if=/tmp/test3

and look in 'tr' for the system calls that fail and generate the 
diagnostics you're seeing?


Can you reproduce the problem in coreutils 8.23, the current version?  
Perhaps the bug, whatever it is, has already been fixed.


With no further follow-ups in 3 years,
I'm closing this bug.

bug#20948: Facing error using coreutil dd - convert and copy a file

2015-07-01 Thread Sunil Yadav
Hi,
In one of my tool unix command dd to convert and copy a file has been used.

Most of time this commands runs well while executing with following options

dd ibs=20b if=/tmp/test3

output:
16019+1 records in
320380+1 records out
164034561 bytes (164 MB) copied, 4.92556 s, 33.3 MB/s

With coreutil version 8.4 I am facing following error:

    dd: writing in Standard stdin: The connection was reset by the 
communication partner

output:
102+0 records in
2036+0 records out
1042432 bytes (1,0 MB) copy, 0,00816693 s, 128 MB/s

what could be the reason for this error?

dd --version

sounds like /tmp/test3 is a socket and the writing is
forcibly closing it while dd is reading?
