MSG_NOSIGNAL is a flag used by send() in some implementations of the Berkeley sockets [API].
This flag requests that the implementation does not to send a [SIGPIPE] signal on errors on stream oriented sockets when the other end breaks the connection. The [EPIPE] error is still returned as normal.

a socket option [SO_NOSIGPIPE].
