APR_HAS_SENDFILE and the rest of us

[Dave Hill <dd...@laurel.zk3.dec.com>]

Building on:
	Compaq Tru64 UNIX, v5.0a
	native cc 
	sources from anoncvs 7/12/00

Unresolved:
ap_sendfile

code is in:
apache-2.0/src/lib/apr/network_io/unix/sendrecv.c

APR_HAS_SENDFILE is set in lib/apr/include/apr.h

lib/apr/configure knows that Tru64 v5.0 has sendfile, but
there is no default case for the #ifdef platform 
chain. Looking at the ones that are there, looks like
there is yet another way to do the same thing as Tru64
as a different call than the ones there.

There is an empty #else clause for the #ifdef daisy chain.
Perhaps something should be inserted in there like:

#error ap_sendfile not implemented for this architecture
 /*
    for some reason APR_HAS_SENDFILE was set by configure
    but there is no supporting code for your OS.
    Modify lib/apr/include/apr.h to unset APR_HAS_SENDFILE
    and rebuild Apache.
 */

I am looking into writing ap_sendfile for Tru64, hope to have 
it soon.
