    Hi,

    I'm running some tests as a normal user on AIX6.1, ioctl failed with EACCES.
    Should I always try it with root?
    Codes are:
    if( ::ioctl( nd, I_SETSIG, S_ERROR | S_RDNORM ) == -1 )
    {
    char * err=strerror( errno );
    DL(dbgi("Unable to I_SETSIG on fd %d. Error was %s",
    nd, err ));
    return false;
    }
    Thanks for your help!
