  i can't recall if this is a known issue, but I have someone that's using an LX zone and whatever software he's running is using sendfilev and it's returning EINTR which I guess doesn't happen on Linux

  (it's breaking that software because it's not expecting it)

  man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/sendfile.2.html does mention sendfile, but not sendfilev. So this sounds like the problem is because we emulate sendfile via sendfilev (and it can get EINTR)?

  Hmm. FreeBSD man page mentions EINTR.

  The linux man page doesn't list ENOSYS in its returns, but mentions it in the notes section, so clearly the man page is incomplete.

  well, linux also does tell that the implementation may be different in other systems. ..

  i guess it sends a bit, then stops and fails w/ EINTR
