[PATCH net 1/2] vsock: add half-closed socket details in the implementation notes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



vmci_transport never allowed half-closed socket on the host side.
Since we want to have the same behaviour across all transports, we
add a section in the "Implementation notes".
