Subject: [PATCH] tcp_splice, flow: Add socket to epoll set before connect(), drop assert
Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2025 00:53:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251208235333.2864818-1-sbrivio@redhat.com> (raw)
...otherwise, if we have a real error on connect() (that is, not
EINPROGRESS), we'll return early from tcp_splice_connect() and later
try to fetch the epoll file descriptor:
ASSERTION FAILED in flow_epollfd (flow.c:362): f->epollid < ((1 << 8) - 1)
which is still (correctly) EPOLLFD_ID_INVALID.
Replace the ASSERT() in flow_epollfd() with a warning, as it looks
like there might be harmless cases where the socket is not in the
epoll set yet, and we'll just crash for nothing. We can turn this back
to an ASSERT() once we audit these paths in more detail.

I might merge this in a bit even without review as we might now have
broken distribution packages around.
