But UDP sockets can be connected!
If I connect the UDP sockets, then shutdown succeeds (no exception is raised),
but recvfrom still appears to succeed, returning a zero length message with a
bogus address family, IP address and port. (Bogus even if I set them to zero
before the call!)
FYI, the FreeBSD (and OpenBSD) shutdown manpages anticipate calling shutdown on
DGRAM sockets. And the Linux connect manpage discusses connecting DGRAM
sockets.
Here is the updated Python code. I do expect to try to report this upstream.
(Also, I now have C/pthreads code, if you want to see it. As expected, C
behaves identically.)
----
import socket, threading, time
fd_0 = socket.socket (socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
fd_0.bind (('localhost', 8000))
fd_0.connect (('localhost', 8001))
fd_1 = socket.socket (socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
fd_1.bind (('localhost', 8001))
fd_1.connect (('localhost', 8000))
def thread_main ():
for i in range (3) :
# print ('recvfrom blocking ...')
recv, remote_addr = fd_0.recvfrom (1024)
print ('recvfrom %s %s' % (recv, remote_addr))
def main ():
fd_1.send (b'test')
fd_1.send (b'')
fd_0.shutdown (socket.SHUT_RD)
thread = threading.Thread ( target = thread_main )
thread.start ()
time.sleep (0.5)
main ()
thread.join ()
print ('exiting')
----
And the code outputs:
recvfrom b'test' ('127.0.0.1', 8001)
recvfrom b'' ('127.0.0.1', 8001)
recvfrom b'' (36100, b'\xe4\xc6\xf0^7\xe2\x85\xf8\x07\xc1\x04\x8d\xe4\xc6')
exiting
