Hi Martin,

In listen mode with UDP transport, once the sender has sent
the TEARDOWN and closed the connection, poll will indicate that
one can read from the connection (indicating that the socket has
reached EOF and should be closed by the receiver as well). In this
case, parse_rtsp_message won't try to parse the command (because
it's no longer in state STREAMING), but previously just returned
zero.

Prior to f6161fccf8c5720ceac1ed1df8ba60ff8fed69f5, this caused
udp_read_packet to return zero, which is treated as EOF by
read_packet. But after that commit, udp_read_packet would continue
if parse_rtsp_message didn't return an explicit error code.

To keep the original behaviour from before that commit, more
explicitly return an error in parse_rtsp_message when in the wrong
state.

Fixes: #8840

Does the else part needs the same fix?

Which else part do you refer to? The else above (with the warning)? Yes that bit looks a bit odd to me as well - your patch 2/2 looks like a good fix for that.

I tried a similar approach in

http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2020-August/267437.html.

I'm less keen on that approach. As the problem is with listen mode, I'd cautiously avoid changing code that is general to both modes.

The intended behavior (e.g., return value) of parse_rtsp_message is not quite clear

to me, could you help improve it, like adding some documentation?

Well I'm not sure how much there is to document. It's a static function that is called from one single place in the code, so the documentation of it is the code surrounding the single call to it. Ideally it'd follow common conventions like returning a negative value on error and zero/positive on success that one should continue from.
