Re: O_DIRECT "packet mode" pipes on Linux

[Dale R. Worley]

I have a sense that if I was clever enough, I'd be able to see the
magical form of using "exec" that would cause bash to create a pipe-pair
of fd's (like pipe(2) does), with the two fd's accessible as, e.g., fd
10 and 11 of bash.  If you did a few of these, you could then plumb
together processes in whatever strange way you wanted.
