From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2016 20:40:24 +0000 (-0700) Subject: net: clear sk_err_soft in sk_clone_lock() X-Git-Tag: v3.16.42~42 X-Git-Url: http://git.hungrycats.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4ecc76bd3f1b45cd31b4c88bdd8d77bf998a471e;p=linux net: clear sk_err_soft in sk_clone_lock() [ Upstream commit e551c32d57c88923f99f8f010e89ca7ed0735e83 ] At accept() time, it is possible the parent has a non zero sk_err_soft, leftover from a prior error. Make sure we do not leave this value in the child, as it makes future getsockopt(SO_ERROR) calls quite unreliable. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh Signed-off-by: David S.
