hi guys.

can we use fread and fwrite with pipes to write data more than PIPE_BUF atomically since they lock FILE object until I/O operation finish?

FREAD(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							  FREAD(3)

NAME
fread, fwrite - binary stream input/output SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h> size_t fread(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, FILE *stream); size_t fwrite(const void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, FILE *stream); DESCRIPTION
The function fread reads nmemb elements of data, each size bytes long, from the stream pointed to by stream, storing them at the location given by ptr. The function fwrite writes nmemb elements of data, each size bytes long, to the stream pointed to by stream, obtaining them from the loca- tion given by ptr. For non-locking counterparts, see unlocked_stdio(3). RETURN VALUE
fread and fwrite return the number of items successfully read or written (i.e., not the number of characters). If an error occurs, or the end-of-file is reached, the return value is a short item count (or zero). fread does not distinguish between end-of-file and error, and callers must use feof(3) and ferror(3) to determine which occurred. CONFORMING TO
The functions fread and fwrite conform to ANSI X3.159-1989 (``ANSI C''). SEE ALSO
read(2), write(2), feof(3), ferror(3), unlocked_stdio(3) BSD MANPAGE
