IMHO consistency should apply. The opengroup specification for shutdown() says "The shutdown() function shall cause all or part of a full-duplex connection on the socket associated with the file descriptor socket to be shut down." and while that does not really cover the case when the socket is blocked in accept(), if all the other socket types abort the block then that is what the PF_BLUETOOTH sockets should do too. The opengroup specification for accept() suggests EINVAL would be returned if the socket was not accepting connections and arguably that is the case after a shutdown(), though ECONNABORTED could be used too (your program displays ECONNABORTED on NetBSD for instance) > I also have similar results for other blocking syscalls such as > connect(), read(), write(), poll() etc, but the test program is not as > simple. They should all handle the shutdown(). iain -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
