调研方向

Start in src/syscall/io.c at sys_pwritev_append, then compare the O_APPEND paths in sys_pwrite64 and sys_pwritev. The issue describes a race but no safe approach for descriptors without O_APPEND; investigate available host mechanisms while accounting for shared file-description flags. Done means concurrent RWF_APPEND writes do not overwrite one another, including on descriptors opened without O_APPEND.

描述

bug

pwritev2 with RWF_APPEND (sys_pwritev_append in src/syscall/io.c) reads the end of file with fstat and then writes there with pwritev, in two host calls. Linux finds the end of file and writes under the inode lock, so two processes appending to one file with RWF_APPEND never overwrite each other. Under elfuse both can read the same st_size, and the second write lands on the first one's bytes while each call returns success.

For a descriptor that is already O_APPEND, sys_pwrite64 and sys_pwritev now route the write through the host's own append (#463), and RWF_APPEND on such a descriptor could share that path. For a descriptor opened without O_APPEND, macOS has no call that appends atomically without changing the open file description's flags. Setting O_APPEND with F_SETFL around the write would change the flags that a forked child and sibling threads share.

Found in review on #463. It is not changed there because the same fstat then pwritev shape exists on main.
