From 38b257938ac6655d0d6333743303231b9c465ec1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2017 12:38:22 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] sock: reset sk_err when the error queue is empty Prior to f5f99309fa74 (sock: do not set sk_err in sock_dequeue_err_skb), sk_err was reset to the error of the skb on the head of the error queue. Applications, most notably ping, are relying on this behavior to reset sk_err for ICMP packets. Set sk_err to the ICMP error when there is an ICMP packet at the head of the error queue.
