From 202d9a646489ed3f15c0460d76776b3dfb1d4e72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bartosz Golaszewski Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 13:34:42 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Config: select PLATFORM_LINUX if using sendfile() Man entry for sendfile: Not specified in POSIX.1-2001, or other standards. Other UNIX systems implement sendfile() with different semantics and prototypes. It should not be used in portable programs. Select PLATFORM_LINUX if enabling FEATURE_USE_SENDFILE.
