I performed simple test which tries to send data to peer which already called shutdown(SHUT_RD) - AF_UNIX and TCP behave differently. AF_UNIX sends SIGPIPE, while TCP allows to send data. I suggest to not touch this check for AF_VSOCK (e.g. continue work as AF_UNIX), because I don't see strong motivation/argument to remove it. Thanks, Arseniy > > Thanks, > Stefano >
