Subject: [ruby-core:42938] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6088][Open] Add Net::ReadTimeout to distinguish which operation failed


Issue #6088 has been reported by Eric Hodel.

----------------------------------------
Feature #6088: Add Net::ReadTimeout to distinguish which operation failed
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6088

Author: Eric Hodel
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: lib
Target version: 2.0.0


This relates to #5765 which improves use of timeout in net/ and #6001 which introduces Net::HTTP::OpenTimeout.

This patch introduces Net::ReadTimeout as a subclass of Timeout::Error and raises it when a read operation takes too long.  Users may use this to distinguish between timeouts for reading and timeouts for connecting to a remote host.  For a read timeout the user may wish to retry the operation.
