Motivation: When EPOLLRDHUP is received we need to try to read at least one time to ensure that we read all pending data from the socket. Otherwise we may loose data. Modifications: - Ensure we read all data from socket - Ensure file descriptor is closed on doClose() even if doDeregister() throws an Exception. - Only handle either EPOLLRDHUP or EPOLLIN as only one is needed to detect connection reset. Result: No more data loss on connection reset.

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
