Would a non-blocking read() followed by a poll()/select() be useful?
We'd still get a 0 back from read() - but if it was the EOF,
would the
state of the socket change to be in the 'exceptional' state then
if we
repoll? -- justin
Humm, read returning 0 is a EOF, you could also maybe
getsockopt(SO_ERROR) on the socket to confirm the EOF.
SO_ERROR will only give an error in cases where a read or write would
fail and set errno; that's not true for EOF.
No, but moving on..
Select is a different beast because of the definition of what is
a "exceptional condition" which may be pending error conditions
or oob data. I think the "exception fd" of select is similar to a
poll
with POLLPRI mask, so it shoud'nt signal a connection reset.
It's POLLERR, hopefully; that's how APR maps it anyway ;)
It's POLLPRI, errors are not exceptional conditions.
