The problem with SO_RCVLOWAT was found on s390 (big endian), while x86-64
didn't show it. After the fix, all tests pass on s390.
Then Stefano Garzarella pointed out that SO_VM_SOCKETS_* calls might have
a similar problem, which turned out to be true, hence, the second patch.

Changes for v6:
- rework the patch #3 to avoid creating a new file for new functions,
and exclude vsock_perf from calling the new functions.
- add "Reviewed-by:" to the patch #2.
Changes for v5:
- in the patch #2 replace the introduced uint64_t with unsigned long long
to match documentation
- add a patch #3 that verifies every setsockopt() call.
Changes for v4:
- add "Reviewed-by:" to the first patch, and add a second patch fixing
SO_VM_SOCKETS_* calls, which depends on the first one (hence, it's now
a patch series.)
Changes for v3:
- fix the same problem in vsock_perf and update commit message
Changes for v2:
- add "Fixes:" lines to the commit message

Konstantin Shkolnyy (3):
vsock/test: fix failures due to wrong SO_RCVLOWAT parameter
vsock/test: fix parameter types in SO_VM_SOCKETS_* calls
vsock/test: verify socket options after setting them

Sorry, this series is marked as "Not applicable" [1] since we forgot to target a netdev tree (net/net-next) that we usually use for vsock tests.

Please can you send a v7 (carrying my R-b) targeting the net tree?

You need to rebase on top of net tree and use the "net" tag (e.g. [PATCH net]), more details here:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html
Let me know if you need more help with that.

Thanks,
Stefano
