if MSG_PEEK is not used, what happens here ? It doesn't look right to me that we return -EFAULT if skb->len is 0, EFAULT is reserved to faulting (ie reading/writing at least one byte) How are we telling the user message had 0 byte, but its not EOF ? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
