Subject: [PATCH] tcp: Close timer fd when removing it from epoll
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 13:55:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116125557.1426451-1-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)

When tcp_epoll_ctl() handles a CLOSED connection, it removes the timer
from epoll but leaves the fd open until tcp_flow_defer() eventually
closes it.

Close the timer fd immediately when removing it from epoll, since
there's no reason to keep an fd around that's no longer monitored.
Set conn->timer to -1 to prevent a double-close in tcp_flow_defer().
