Fix Description: The semantics for recv() are that it returns -1 for errors, 0 for connection closed, and non-zero for some bytes received. The sasl code w as not using those semantics - it was returning 0 for successful read and -1 for error. Although I have not been able to reproduce the exact failure, what I be lieve is happening is that the initial read of the packet length in sasl_io_star t_packet() works, and the sasl IO is received. At some point, the connection is closed by the client, and the PR_Recv return of 0 is not handled correctly, and somehow the errno gets set to EWOULDBLOCK. From this point on, PR_Recv() wi ll return -1 (since the socket has been closed) and errno is not reset from EWOU LDBLOCK. The fix is to make sure the sasl IO code handles the PR_Recv() return value correctly. Note that with CONNS (8) error log level, you may still occasionally see "wo uld block" errors, but as long as they are not endlessly repeating, this should be ok.
