I tried to run Windows stress tests for this to see how often it fails but after compiling for a long time, the builds hit a three-minute timeout and don't run the tests. See https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-stress-single-test/1858/nodes=win2016-1p-vs2017/console and https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-stress-single-test/1857/nodes=win2016-1p-vs2017/console. 19:31:05 Creating library c:\workspace\node-stress-single-test\nodes\win2016-1p-vs2017\Release\mksnapshot.lib and object c:\workspace\node-stress-single-test\nodes\win2016-1p-vs2017\Release\mksnapshot.exp

@apapirovski sure, I'll take a look |

Just my 2c but this test has been flaky since its introduction, only very infrequently replicates the condition on the originally bugged version (Node 4.0.0) and is unlikely to occur exactly like this again. As such, I think we should scrap the test and move the one important check ( If we try to fix it yet again, it'll be a 6th PR to make this test less flaky. There are currently 5 separate error conditions that we ignore in this. We might be adding a sixth. IMO it's more trouble than it's worth. |

ok - I guess know the reason for failure (though cannot test now, about to leave for the day.) #3635 (comment) (refefenced in the test case) was applicable to this line - connection establishment to a server whose state is arbitrary, is prone to 3 types of errors, and hence we checked and skipped them in the client socket's error handler. This was almost 3 years back! Now it turns out to be that this line too is prone to the same problem, under similar circumstances - and that makes sense, as the server can close any time between client connecting and worker sending messages. In summary, we need an error callback for worker object too, that has the same code as in the client socket callback. |

@mmarchini - looking the failing stack, I believe it is the same issue. So you can apply the same patch as in #20973 over there too, if you are going for a PR. However, I have found issues with it, and please wait while we fix this. |

@gireeshpunathil do you mind if I open a PR to fix |
In test-child-process-fork-closed-channel-segfault.js, race condition is observed between the server getting closed and the worker sending a message. Accommodate the potential errors. Earlier, the same race was observed between the client and server and was addressed through ignoring the relevant errors through error handler. The same mechanism is re-used for worker too. The only difference is that the filter is applied at the callback instead of at the worker's error listener.
