uucico hanging
We have been having a problem with a slave uucico
hanging and have identified one cause of this problem.
It turns out that there is no timeout provisions for
the protocol starting routine "startup". The following
is a simple if not pretty patch to cico.c to provide
the timeout.
309,311c309,315
alarm(MAXMSGTIME);
> if (setjmp(Sjbuf))
> goto Failure;
> ret = startup(Role);
> alarm(0);
> if (ret != SUCCESS) {
> Failure: logent("startup", "FAILED");
I understand that there are other problems with uucico hanging
which this does not explain.
