Since, as you say, another fully-set-up struct uio works, to reuse the struct uio you have, you must need to reset more of it. Looking at the 5.2 code, uiomove(), the routine that (almost?) everything using struct uio ends up calling to copy data, modifies, under some circumstances, uio_iov, uio_iovcnt, uio_resid, uio_offset, and the iov_base and iov_len members of the structs iovec popinted to by uio_iov. Your system likely is different (if nothing else, you write uio_iov.iovec.iov_len for what 5.2 would call uio_iov->iov_len), but, really, why not just reinitialize everything instead of expecting just the three fields you name to be the only ones needing it? I don't think it's any part of uiomove()'s - or soo_read()'s - interface contract to leave any part of the struct uio unchanged. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
