libzfs: run_process: set O_NONBLOCK on lines pipe
Without this, we can deadlock: the child is stuck writing to the pipe, and we are stuck waiting on the child With this, we the child fills up the pipe (a few hundred kBish) and starts getting EAGAINs, which allows it to either crash or ignore them libzfs_run_process_get_stdout*() is used only by zpool -c scripts, which output short runs of K=V pairs, so the likelihood of losing legitimate data there is relatively low Reviewed-by: John Kennedy <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ahelenia Ziemiańska <[email protected]> Closes #12082
