POLLERR would only be set for an RST and "exceptional conditions"; the same applies to select()+the exceptfds array AFAIK. There is some inconsistency with handling FIN and sockets across platforms: http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2001/06/poll.html but yes you'd generally expect POLLIN for "you can read EOF". joe
