            Bug ID: 67841
           Summary: IPX socket shutdown() is not implemented
           Product: Networking
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.12.6
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
          Assignee: shemminger@...ux-foundation.org
          Reporter: 00cpxxx@...il.com
        Regression: No

With no support to shutdown a parallel (other thread) poll call is not waken up
so applications hang indefinitely while waiting for an answer.

Still in the latest development version as seen in:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/net/ipx/af_ipx.c?id=refs/tags/v3.13-rc5#n1966

The problem was found while debugging a windows game through wine, the game is
Dune 2000 and the sister bug is http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6941
