[PATCH net 1/3] unix/dgram: peek beyond 0-sized skbs

From: Benjamin Poirier
Date: Thu Apr 25 2013 - 09:47:35 EST


"77c1090 net: fix infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram()" (v3.8) introduced a
regression:
After that commit, recv can no longer peek beyond a 0-sized skb in the queue.
__skb_recv_datagram() instead stops at the first skb with len == 0 and results
in the system call failing with -EFAULT via skb_copy_datagram_iovec().
