Can socket send / recv set errno 27 (EFBIG) on Solaris? Under which condition this happens?
man recvdoesn’t documentEFBIGmeaning that if you see it, you have encountered a bug in the OS. Contact theSunOracle Solaris support.If you are on the OpenSolaris, the dumb search reveals that sockets themselves do not return
EFBIG(no matches undersys/common/inet/; compare e.g. with search forENOBUFS). To me that tells that you might:-1ubytes which would be caught even before reaching the sockets API. (unlikely for that other error codes are used.)
