note_hup.patch

Hi Vladimir,
I have several questions:

1. For 'LINUX_EPOLL_EVRD', it is defined only as
=E2=80=9CLINUX_EPOLLIN|LINUX_EPOLLRDNORM". If the user call epoll with only
"EPOLLRDHUP", then filter will be no actions.

2. The Linux behavior for Linux are:
    a.If both sender and receiver are shutdown, Linux reports 'EPOLLHUP |
EPOLLRDHUP | EPOLLRDNORM | EPOLLIN'
    b.If only receiver is shutdown, Linux reports 'EPOLLRDHUP | EPOLLRDNORM=
 |
EPOLLIN'.
    c. For EPOLL error, Linux reports it with other epoll events but not re=
port
epoll error only once error detected.
    d. LINUX_EPOLLERR and LINUX_EPOLLHUP are always in EPOLL mask.
    For this patch, based on Linux behavior a) and b), EPOLLRDNORM is missed
for socket.=20

3. No masks for this patch. For example, if the applications only request
EPOLLHUP, but EPOLLIN is detected, the applicaiton will be waken up and cat=
ch
EPOLLIN.

It is better to design a generic framework to handle all cases to match Lin=
ux
behavior. And let each module to handle its own EPOLL events, for example,
socket knows its own epoll behavior, and pipe knows its own epoll behavior,=
 and
epoll_to_kevent is a generic handling.

Please refer https://reviews.freebsd.org/D31037, as someone has concerns to
introduce pevent and pmask in kevent structure. Coudl you please help clari=
fy
the issue?
