Hello,
Apparently libssh only ever polls for POLLIN events; on GNU/Linux, I
think it would be useful to poll for POLLIN | POLLRDHUP, which would
allow connection shutdowns to be caught, as opposed to sitting in a
poll(2) call. I believe the change would be along these lines:
diff --git a/src/bind.c b/src/bind.c
index 6b0fb238..89f89464 100644
--- a/src/bind.c
+++ b/src/bind.c
@@ -321,7 +321,7 @@ static int ssh_bind_poll_callback(ssh_poll_handle sshpoll,
ssh_poll_handle ssh_bind_get_poll(ssh_bind sshbind){
if(sshbind->poll)

+ sshbind->poll=ssh_poll_new(sshbind->bindfd, POLLIN | POLLRDHUP,

}
Thoughts?
