open file by file descriptor

[mangup]

I discovered that it is implemented, but does not work for me.
How to do it properly?

Hi, according to the tests, it works with fd://thefiledescriptornumber, like fd://0 for stdin.
What do you mean by it doesn't not work ?

open file, write data, get fd and put it to input_SlaveSourceAdd() instead of file path

[unidan]

And what are the logs ?

[00007f61193227e8] main generic debug: no access modules matched
[000055e2e5388270] main input warning: failed to add fd://4134900864 as slave
[000055e2e5388270] main input debug: failed input_SlaveSourceAdd

It's in the same access as file access so you probably have an issue with your modules instead

Sorry, I did not catch your idea.
I can create file, write data, close it and pass file path to input_SlaveSourceAdd(..., "file:///path", ...) and it works.
But: open file, write data, get fd and call input_SlaveSourceAdd(..., "fd:///<fd-string>", ...) does not work.

Actually, fd://4134900864 looks like a wrong file descriptor, as the default limit is really lower that that and it's bigger than INT_MAX. What did you do ? Can you scan the file descriptor from the process when doing this ?

Now I've fixed fd. it is 33
But still faild to load data from open file via fd - no module is selected inside vlc_stream_FilterNew() function during "priv->module = module_need(s, "stream_filter", psz_stream_filter, true);" call.

Hi, this is probably not the real issue, but it's difficult to tell like that.

[mangup]
