Re: Problem with socketpair , AF_UNIX and select call - can anybody through any light on this!

Why don't you try removing the O_NONBLOCK since you test with

Never, ever, do that ... select only returns a hint that an IO operation
might succeed, not a guarantee (google for "spurious wakeup"), hence a
subsequent read/write might block if the descriptor isn't set to
O_NONBLOCK, and that's almost always not what's wanted or expected.
