I'm not sure if I understand the question correctly. First of all,
the socket is in non-blocking mode, no? And anyway, even if it was in
blocking mode, in the time between an incomplete send was done, the
buffer could have been emptied by the kernel, so you cannot assume
that the next send will block.
