Doesn't the "if (atomic_read(&sk->sk_wmem_alloc) < sk->sk_sndbuf)" check in sock_alloc_send_pskb() limit things already? Or don't unix datagram sockets have a limited sendbuffer? Ouch, that complicates things. But wait a moment, I'm running a kernel now with the patch applied and some testcode shows that everything seems to behave as expected, with send() returning EAGAIN after a while, and poll giving POLLOUT when more data can be send. What am I missing?
