There is a type bug because the return statement: return ret < 0 ? ret : recv_cnt; The issue is that ret is an int, recv_cnt is a u32 and the function returns ssize_t, which is a signed long. The way that the type promotion works is that the negative error codes are first cast to u32 and then to signed long. The error codes end up being positive instead of negative and the callers treat them as success.
