3.2.87-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3023898b7d4aac65987bd2f485cc22390aae6f78 ] Do not send the next message in sendmmsg for partial sendmsg invocations. sendmmsg assumes that it can continue sending the next message when the return value of the individual sendmsg invocations is positive. It results in corrupting the data for TCP, SCTP, and UNIX streams. For example, sendmmsg([["abcd"], ["efgh"]]) can result in a stream of "aefgh" if the first sendmsg invocation sends only the first byte while the second sendmsg goes through. Datagram sockets either send the entire datagram or fail, so this patch affects only sockets of type SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET.
