Hi,
In one of my tool unix command "dd" to convert and copy a file has been used.

Most of time this commands runs well while executing with following options

dd ibs=20b if=/tmp/test3

output:
16019+1 records in
320380+1 records out
164034561 bytes (164 MB) copied, 4.92556 s, 33.3 MB/s

With coreutil version 8.4 I am facing following error:

    dd: writing in "Standard stdin": The connection was reset by the communication partner

output:
102+0 records in
2036+0 records out
1042432 bytes (1,0 MB) copy, 0,00816693 s, 128 MB/s

what could be the reason for this error?

dd --version
dd (coreutils) 8.4
