setting this only on exceptions caused by actual fd access is not sufficient to diagnose all errors (such as SerialisationError) in some cases. this usually does not have any negative effects since those errors will end up killing the process in another way. this is not a reliable assumption though and we should be using proper error handling (and closing connections more often, preferring to close over keeping something open that might be in a weird state) Change-Id: I1b792cd7ad8ba9ff0f6bd174945ab2575ff2208e |
