From aa388c72113b7458127b709bdd7d3628af26e9b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Luczaj Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2025 14:15:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] vsock: Allow retrying on connect() failure sk_err is set when a (connectible) connect() fails. Effectively, this makes an otherwise still healthy SS_UNCONNECTED socket impossible to use for any subsequent connection attempts. Clear sk_err upon trying to establish a connection.
