** [tickets:#1227] MDS: Receiving zero bytes result in abort**
**Status:** review

If someone sends an empty message (lenght 0) to a MDS TIPC port it will result
in a restart of that component due to an abort in the MDS TIPC part. This
should of course not happen normally but this abort can be used by someone
(hackers) wanting to cause restarts of components. So the abort (replace with
continue?) should be removed and the log entry should be changed.
