If you create an unbound Socket and close it at around the time that another thread is binding, connecting, or anything else that creates the underlying socket then it can leak. The simplest thing to do is to synchronize all methods but the underlying SocketImpl implementation is thread safe, and all we really need is for Socket (and ServerSocket) to synchronize the creation of the underlying socket (SocketImpl.create) with close. As part of this change I've replaced the 6 flags with a bit mask. A new test is added to the Socket/asyncClose directory to test closing concurrently with another operation, the test will detect if the closed Socket is connected to a SocketImpl with an open socket.

Its behavior is unspecified when called with a Socket that isn't newly created/unbound and there are number of silly scenarios that can arise. I've changed implAccept to coordinate with close so that accept doesn't return a closed Socket that is connected to an underlying socket. A new test is added to exercise these scenarios.

This appears to be a typo. I think this should have been "call getOption..."

test/jdk/java/net/ServerSocket/ImplAccept.java line 251:

If I understand this correctly, we are calling this method just to have the underlying native call to go through and the actual choice of the option name (in this case the SO_REUSEADDR) isn't of any importance?
