Hi Corinna,
I'm about to add some code to handle shutdown info, and I want to make sure that
I understand how this is supposed to work. fhandler_socket_unix::shutdown
contains the following comment:
/* Send shutdown info to peer. Note that it's not necessarily fatal
if the info isn't sent here. The info will be reproduced by any
followup package sent to the peer. */
Does that mean that sendmsg should send its shutdown state as part of every
packet it sends?
And I guess recvmsg should call grab_admin_pkg at every opportunity and should
also check the shutdown state in every regular packet it reads?
Thanks.
Ken
