During testing, one of the newly added tests revealed that we were not managing
DispatchIO
correctly during early terminations on Darwin and Linux. Currently, we simply close the file descriptors in the clean-up handler, which is incorrect becauseDispatchIO
is used for read/write operations on these file descriptors. Modifying the file descriptor after it has been “transferred” toDispatchIO
is considered a programmer error.Rearchitect
TrackedFileDescriptor
(now renamedDiskIO
) to either hold aFileDescriptor
or aDispatchIO
. We createDispatchIO
as the final step ofspawn()
and use it for read/write operations and cleanup, instead of using a raw file descriptor. This allowsDispatchIO
to naturally close the file descriptor itself.
