How to inform the server if a client is interrupted, and then close the socket?
If the other end of a socket is closed, your end will be marked as readable and return
0fromread– this is the “end of file” indication.If you try to
writeto such a socket, you will recieve theSIGPIPEsignal, and thewritewill return error with errno set toEPIPE(“Broken Pipe”). You must be prepared to handle this event, because the other end can close the socket at any time.
