Unfortunately not all platforms generate POLLHUP when writer closed a pipe:
Moreover, some platforms generate POLLIN with or without POLLHUP
https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/tech/poll.html
So, the only correct way is try to read EOF (0) from pipe when POLLIN or
POLLHUP in revents.

The pipe-source can change latency only when it generating a silence.
