Amanda supplies a few wrapper functions around the ordinary descriptor operations to handle a few common cases. In most cases, these functions are preferred over calling the wrapped function directly.
robust_open
- in common-src/file.c
This function wraps open to retry on certain failures, and sets the close-on-exec flag.
robust_close
- in common-src/file.c
This function wraps close to retry on certain failures.
