+// safeClose closes c being careful not to race with any calls to c.Write.
+// See golang.org/issue/9307 and TestEchoFileRace in exec_test.go.
+// In theory other calls could also be excluded (by writing appropriate
+// wrappers like c.Write's implementation below), but since c is most
+// commonly used as a WriteCloser, Write is the main one to worry about.
+// See also #7970, for which this is a partial fix for this specific instance.
+// The idea is that we return a WriteCloser, and so the caller can be
+// relied upon not to call Write and Close simultaneously, but it's less
+// obvious that cmd.Wait calls Close and that the caller must not call
+// Write and cmd.Wait simultaneously. In fact that seems too onerous.
+// So we change the use of Close in cmd.Wait to use safeClose, which will
+// synchronize with any Write.
+//
+// It's important that we know this won't block forever waiting for the
+// operations being excluded. At the point where this is called,
+// the invoked command has exited and the parent copy of the read side
+// of the pipe has also been closed, so there should really be no read side
+// of the pipe left. Any active writes should return very shortly with an EPIPE,
+// making it reasonable to wait for them.
+// Technically it is possible that the child forked a sub-process or otherwise
+// handed off the read side of the pipe before exiting and the current holder
+// is not reading from the pipe, and the pipe is full, in which case the close here
+// might block waiting for the write to complete. That's probably OK.
+// It's a small enough problem to be outweighed by eliminating the race here.
