That doesn't depend on blocking or nonblocking, it's the way the socket API is 
defined. When a receive function returns:
- 0, the remote host closed the connection
- >0, data was received,
- <0, there has been an error. To find out which error, you have to look at the 
global variable 'errno'. E.g. for a receive timeout on a nonblocking socket, 
this would be 'EAGAIN'.

Also, this is not lwIP specific but generally valid for sockets.
