RFR 8237858: PlainSocketImpl.socketAccept() handles EINTR incorrectly

Hi Vyom,

Now I have second thoughts. The documentation of poll(2) says:

        int poll(struct pollfd *fds, nfds_t nfds, int timeout);

        [...]

        Specifying a negative value in timeout means an infinite
        timeout.
        Specifying a timeout of zero causes poll() to return
        immediately, even if no file descriptors are ready.

As Michael hinted, are we sure that we are handling the
timeout=0 case properly?

Moreover, the timeout parameter is supposed to be an int.
I'd be more satisfied if we declared an int variable e.g.

    int timeoutms = timeout;

at about line 411, and then update it just after line 446:

    timeoutms = nanoTimeout / NET_NSEC_PER_MSEC

What do you think?

Also JDK-8179905 [1] also modified aix_close.c, solaris_close.c,
bsd_close.c [2] - so I believe you should also fix all these places.

best regards,
