Description

Currently, different listeners behave differently on receiving an InterruptedException while blocking on recv(). Some return null, while some throw a RuntimeException.

I feel returning a null makes more sense - (1) There might be cases requiring a subsequent call to recv(), (2) Easier to understand/analyze for the application-programmer.
