[PATCH] netfilter: nf_sockopt_find() should return ERESTARTSYS

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

 



From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

getsockopt() or setsockopt() sometimes returns -EINTR instead of
-ENOPROTOOPT, causing headaches to application developers.

This is because unsupported commands might go through nf_sockopt_find()
and this function returns -EINTR instead of -ERESTARTSYS if
a signal is pending.
