From cfe76f2d6bd77d3c0a73335c9643bcd6e8dd24fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Noordhuis Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2016 11:03:55 +0200 Subject: src: disable stdio buffering Disable stdio buffering, it interacts poorly with printf() calls from elsewhere in the program (e.g., any logging from V8.) Unbreaks among other things the `--trace_debug_json` switch. Undoes commit 0966ab99 ("src: force line buffering for stderr"), which in retrospect is not a proper fix. Turning on line buffering fixed a flaky test on SmartOS but the test wasn't failing on other platforms, where stderr wasn't line-buffered either. Mark the test flaky again, it failed once in a run of 333 tries on the smartos-64 buildbot. Disabling buffering should be safe even when mixed with non-blocking stdio I/O because libuv goes to great lengths to reopen the tty file descriptors and falls back to blocking I/O when that fails.
