Takashi Yano c7fe29f5cb Cygwin: pipe: Restore blocking mode of read pipe on close()/raw_read()
If a cygwin app is executed from a non-cygwin app and the cygwin
app exits, the read pipe remains in the non-blocking mode because
of the commit fc691d0246b9. Due to this behaviour, the non-cygwin
app cannot read the pipe correctly after that. Similarly, if a
non-cygwin app is executed from a cygwin app and the non-cygwin
app exits, the read pipe remains in the blocking mode. With this
patch, the blocking mode of the read pipe is stored into a variable
was_blocking_read_pipe on set_pipe_non_blocking() when the cygwin
app starts and restored on close(). In addition, the pipe mode is
set to non-blocking mode in raw_read() if the mode is blocking
mode by referring the variable is_blocking_read_pipe as well.
is_blocking_read_pipe is a member of fhandler_pipe class and is set
by set_pipe_non_blocking(), so if other process sets the pipe mode
to blocking mode, the current process cannot know the pipe is
blocking mode. Therefore, is_blocking_read_pipe is also set on the
signal __SIGNONCYGCHLD, which is sent to the process group when
non-cygwin app is started.
