(OK) pthread—epoll-loops-on-disconnection-of-a-client—server

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14563134/epoll-loops-on-disconnection-of-a-client

I am trying to implement a socket server by using epoll. I have 2 threads doing 2 tasks:

  1. listening to incoming connection
  2. writing on screen the data the client is sending.

For my test I have the client and the server on the same machine with 3 or 4 clients running.The server works fine until I don't kill one of the client by issuing a CTRL-C: as soon I do that the server starts looping and printing at a very fast rate data from other client. The strange thing is that

  1. the client sends data each 2 seconds but the rate of the server is higher
  2. epoll_wait is also supposed to print something when one of the client disconnects as it is checking also for EPOLLHUP or EPOLLERR
  3. epoll_wait should wait a bit before printing since I gave him a timeout of 3000 milliseconds.

Can you help? Could it be that I am passing in a wrong way the epoll descriptor to the other thread? I cannot understand since the code looks similar to many examples around.

Thanks a lot

A client disconnection is signalled by a EOF condition on the file descriptor. The system considers EOF to be a state in which the file descriptor is 'readable'. But, of course, the EOF condition cannot be read. This is the source of your looping. epoll is acting like the file descriptor for the disconnected client is always readable. You can detect that you have an EOF condition by checking when read returns 0 bytes read.

The only way to deal with an EOF condition is to close the file descriptor in some way. Depending on exactly how the flow of things go, this could be with shutdown(sockfd, SHUT_RD), shutdown(sockfd, SHUT_RDWR) or close(sockfd);.

Unless you know that you need the shutdown(2) call for whatever reason, I would recommend you use close. Of course, you should remember to tell epoll that the file descriptor is no longer of interest before you close. I'm not sure what will happen if you don't, but one possibility is that epoll will error. Another is that epoll will mysteriously begin reporting events for a new file descriptor that has the same numeric value before you add it to the list epoll should care about.
