[PATCH v3 1/3] perf tools: Handle EINTR error for readn/writen

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Thu Apr 24 2014 - 09:27:49 EST


Those readn/writen functions are to ensure read/write does I/O for
a given size exactly. But ion() - its implementation - does not
handle in case it returns prematurely due to a signal. As it's not
an error itself so just retry the operation.
