Hello,

I'm implementing a secure Websocket server backend with libevent (using the 
direct socket-based bufferevent approach, not filter-based). The sockets work 
in the non-blocking mode.
I've noticed that sometimes the buffevent event callback fires with `what` 
argument = `BEV_EVENT_ERROR|BEV_EVENT_READING`, but the reason isn't clear. 
`evutil_socket_geterror` called on the socket file descriptor returns 0 (which 
denotes success), and `bufferevent_get_openssl_error` called on the bufferevent 
also doesn't indicate any errors.
For now I'm dropping the connection immediately in the callback, but I'm not 
sure if this is the proper way, probably that event should be just ignored and 
the connection kept alive?
What else (apart from `evutil_socket_geterror` and 
`bufferevent_get_openssl_error`) should be inspected to get more information 
about the possible reason?

Thanks
