Mono.Unix.UnixMarshal.ShouldRetrySyscall Method
Returns a bool indicating whether a system call should be retried.

Syntax

public static bool ShouldRetrySyscall (int r)

Parameters

r
A int containing the return value of a method from Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall.

Returns

Returns true if r is -1 and Mono.Unix.Native.Stdlib.GetLastError returns Mono.Unix.Native.Errno.EINTR. Otherwise, false is returned.

Remarks

System calls may need to be restarted for a variety of reasons, generally explained within the system call documentation. The most typical reason is that the system call was interrupted, and the caller is expected to re-invoke the system call to complete the operation.

Assembly Versions: 1.0.5000.0, 2.0.0.0, 4.0.0.0
