Summary |
0000027: patch: nc will spin if stdin closed |
Description |
if stdin to the nc command is closed before the network socket is finished, then nc will spin, continuously being informed by select() of stdin's closure. this can easily happen if stdin is connected to /dev/null (for instance if started from busybox init with no console). usually this isn't an issue, since shutting down the sending half of the socket will cause the other end to close. but this isn't always the case.
