[PATCH net v2] net/rds: rds_sendmsg should not discard payload_len

From: Allison Henderson <achender@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-02-10 17:09:54
Also in: linux-kselftest, linux-rdma
Subsystem: networking [general], rds - reliable datagram sockets, the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Allison Henderson, Linus Torvalds

Commit 3db6e0d172c9 ("rds: use RCU to synchronize work-enqueue with
connection teardown") modifies rds_sendmsg to avoid enqueueing work
while a tear down is in progress. However, it also changed the return
value of rds_sendmsg to that of rds_send_xmit instead of the
payload_len. This means the user may incorrectly receive errno values
when it should have simply received a payload of 0 while the peer
attempts a reconnections.  So this patch corrects the teardown handling
code to only use the out error path in that case, thus restoring the
original payload_len return value.
