Failed to recv() from connection [7]! Bad address.

[JeremyGrosser]

When I start statsite and send UDP messages to it (eg. "cn.nginx.latency:45|ms\n"), I see the following message on stdout:

statsite[7686]: Failed to recv() from connection [7]! Bad address.

Digging in a bit more, these start once statsd receives a malformed stat on the udp port. For example:

my.stats.are.bad

With no value causes close_client_connection(handle->conn); to be called on the UDP socket in conn_handler.c:308. This causes all further recv() calls to that socket to fail.

Seeing the same issue with malformed values as well as missing ones.

[pid 18891] recvfrom(7, "dispatch.production.foo:undefined|g", 262143, 0, NULL, NULL) = 53
[pid 18891] sendto(3, "<132>Feb 4 22:46:16 statsite[18890]: Failed value conversion! Input: undefined", 79, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 79

Thanks for reporting. I added an integration test to confirm this and sure enough it's there.
The fix and the test for it are now in master. Please give that a try. I think the issue is closed now.

Marking this as closed now.
