When networking statistics was added to the netmgr (in commit
5234a8e00a), two lines were added that
increment the 'STATID_RECVFAIL' statistic: One if 'uv_read_start'
fails and one at the end of the 'read_cb'. The latter happens
if 'nread < 0'.
According to the libuv documentation, I/O read callbacks (such as for
files and sockets) are passed a parameter 'nread'. If 'nread' is less
than 0, there was an error and 'UV_EOF' is the end of file error, which
you may want to handle differently.
In other words, we should not treat EOF as a RECVFAIL error.
