Description:
The protocol documentation describes the initial connection handshake here:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/connection-phase.html#packet-Protocol::Handshake

However, it does not describe how the server initial handshake packet will contain an error message if the host from which the connection is attempted is not allowed.

How to repeat:
See protocol documentation

Suggested fix:
Add documentation for initial handshake error state.

Added a "may send ERR packet after connect()" part to the initial handshake section.
