However, if the client then +terminates the connection, the socket file descriptor receives a HUP +event, which is not handled, thus the kernel keeps marking the HUP event +as occurring. While iterating over the file descriptors that triggered +an event, the client file descriptor will keep having the HUP event and +the client_work() function is always called with AVAHI_WATCH_HUP but +without nothing being done, thus entering an infinite loop. + +See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=984938 +--- + avahi-daemon/simple-protocol.c | 5 +++++ + 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) + +diff --git a/avahi-daemon/simple-protocol.c b/avahi-daemon/simple-protocol.c +index 3e0ebb11..6c0274d6 100644 +--- a/avahi-daemon/simple-protocol.c ++++ b/avahi-daemon/simple-protocol.c +@@ -424,6 +424,11 @@ static void client_work(AvahiWatch *watch, AVAHI_GCC_UNUSED int fd, AvahiWatchEv + } + } + ++ if (events & AVAHI_WATCH_HUP) { ++ client_free(c); ++ return; ++ } ++ + c->server->poll_api->watch_update( + watch, + (c->outbuf_length > 0 ?
