[vlc-devel] [PATCH] Fix infinite loop in the telnet interface

[Adrien Grand]

Hello,

When I close the telnet session client-side (by killing the telnet
process for example), VLC (0.9.x and 1.0.0-git) goes into an infinite
loop. It seems to be because recv() instantly returns 0 and errno is set
to EAGAIN, which is not handled by the if clause which tries to detect
the telnet client connections to drop.

The attached patch if a fix proposal for this issue.

Best regards,
