>Description:
When a thread is blocked waiting for data on a socket and another thread closes the socket, the blocked thread remains blocked indefinitely. Both kse and thr have this issue. c_r returns with -1 errno==EBADF. Solaris
returns with -1 errno==0.

I originally posted this on the freebsd-threads list. Daniel Eischen replied indicating this is not a thread library issue.

  memset((char *) addr4, 0, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in));
  addr4->sin_port = htons(port);
  addr4->sin_addr.s_addr = (uint32_t) htonl(address);
  addr4->sin_family = AF_INET;
}

int
main() {
  int sock1;
  struct sockaddr addr;
  pthread_t thread1;
  void *value_ptr;

  buildAddr4((struct sockaddr_in *)&addr, 0, 0);

  if ((sock1 = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)) < 0)
    exit(1);
  if (bind(sock1, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) != 0)
    exit(1);

  pthread_create(&thread1, NULL, start_routine, (void *)sock1);
  sleep(1);

  close(sock1);
  pthread_join(thread1, &value_ptr);

  return (0);
