Re: [syzbot] [rdma] general protection fault in kernel_sock_shutdown (4)

I don’t think the test results are correct.

I ran the test twice.

In the first run, a commit that is known to fix this issue was already included, but syzbot still reported the problem.

In the second run, I removed that commit and introduced a similar fix instead, but syzbot still reported the same issue.

In both cases, there was no call trace or any additional information provided.

Given this, I suspect that syzbot may not actually be able to reproduce the issue.

Thanks,
