On kernels before v5.15, calling read() on a unix socket after shutdown(SHUT_RD) or shutdown(SHUT_RDWR) would return the data previously written or EOF. But now, while read() after shutdown(SHUT_RD) still behaves the same way, read() after shutdown(SHUT_RDWR) always fails with -EINVAL. This behaviour change was apparently inadvertently introduced as part of a bug fix for a different regression caused by the commit adding sockmap support to af_unix, commit 94531cfcbe79c359 ("af_unix: Add unix_stream_proto for sockmap"). Those commits, for unclear reasons, started setting the socket state to TCP_CLOSE on shutdown(SHUT_RDWR), while this state change had previously only been done in unix_release_sock(). Restore the original behaviour. The sockmap tests in tests/selftests/bpf continue to pass after this patch.
