Hello all,

There's quite strange behavior of the linux kernel when other side closed connection
and we try to read from socket.
Firstly I get -1 and EPIPE in errno. Hmmm... I could not find anywhere in standards or manpages
that recv can return EPIPE. OK...
The if I try to continue read I will get the rest of the data which arrived between last read and
connection close... Very strange logic... Any comments on this.
