Description From Raj Kettimuthu 2006-08-01 10:25:32

When the proxy file is already present as a fifo, the O_RDONLY|O_CREAT open in
sysconfig blocks until someone opens the proxy file for write.

------- Comment #1 From Raj Kettimuthu 2006-08-01 10:55:03 -------

O_NONBLOCK flag has been added to the open in
globus_gsi_sysconfig_set_key_permissions_unix in globus_gsi_system_config.c to
fix this. Fix has been committed to trunk and 4_0 branch
