Can you explain why you think that? When advising on these changes and reviewing patches, I was very careful that they do not introduce API nor ABI changes. Apart from bugs in protocols that were not fixed immediately, the only change visible for applications is if they register a custom callback for a packet protocol and yet decide to return 0 to indicate EOF. This was never a documented practice, is logically absurd (0 is a valid packet size) and inconsistent with similar practices (UDP socket do not return 0 for EOF). Regards, -- Nicolas George
