[zeromq-dev] Disconnect appears not to respect linger

[Christian Kamm]

I started looking at it and filed a related bug:
https://zeromq.jira.com/browse/LIBZMQ-546

Is there documentation for the shutdown sequence? It's fairly complex
with the socket, session and two pipes on each end.

I currently guess that when a socket is disconnected the peer gets a
pipe_term command and that just uses the value of the pipe's 'delay'
member (always true) without consulting linger? And what are those
delay_on_close/delay_on_disconnect options?

Regards,
Christian
