The test fails on this line because SIOCATMARK has yet another bug
triggered by the same pattern, and my patch also fixes that.

If you remove this line, you'll see this failure on the following
recvpair("", -EAGAIN, 1, 0).

---8<---
# msg_oob.c:234:ex_oob_oob:AF_UNIX :y
# msg_oob.c:235:ex_oob_oob:Expected:Resource temporarily unavailable
# msg_oob.c:237:ex_oob_oob:Expected ret[0] (1) == expected_len (-1)
# ex_oob_oob: Test terminated by assertion
#          FAIL  msg_oob.peek.ex_oob_oob
not ok 31 msg_oob.peek.ex_oob_oob
---8<---

This failure means recv() without MSG_OOB expects -EAGAIN because
no data has been sent on the normal stream, but actually the recv()
returns 1 byte OOB data.

This is the same result triggered by the syzbot's repro.

I don't know why KASAN does not show a splat on your setup, but what
we need to do is not run the syz repro blindly and just wait a splat,
rather carefully analyse the sequence of syscalls and each consequence.

Sometimes I fixes bugs from the syzkaller's strace log without repro.

This time, the fact that recv() without MSG_OOB returns OOB data is
the clear sign that something went wrong.

You need not rely on KASAN.
