[gaim-migrate @ 17738] * Patch from Christopher "cuberoot" to fix the repeated, CPU-intensive call loop on url_fetch_recv_cb() which was discussed on gaim-devl with the subject "Yahoo (and maybe others): gaim_util_fetch_url_request() at 100% CPU until complete with repeated EAGAIN". He writes: "When read() returns 0, that means eof... period. Don't check errno, don't collect $200. The loop was caused by eof condition when errno had previously been EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK. The CPU-bound loop stopped when errno happened to be overwritten. I also believe trying to use some/part of an HTTP request on ETIMEDOUT to be a mistake so I removed it. Funny enough the read(2) manpage doesn't document ETIMEDOUT as a possible errno, but it is. (see tcp_timer.c and tcp_subr.c in src/sys/netinet)." This closes Adium Trac ticket #5685. * Added some passing-NULL-to-printf() safety which has been sitting around in this file locally for a while, waiting for a worthwhile commit to accompany. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
