[PATCH v4 2/4] QIOChannelSocket: Fix zero-copy send so socket flush works
Posted by Leonardo Bras 3 years, 7 months ago
Somewhere between v6 and v7 the of the zero-copy-send patchset a crucial
part of the flushing mechanism got missing: incrementing zero_copy_queued.

Without that, the flushing interface becomes a no-op, and there is no
guarantee the buffer is really sent.

This can go as bad as causing a corruption in RAM during migration.

Fixes: 2bc58ffc2926 ("QIOChannelSocket: Implement io_writev zero copy flag & io_flush for CONFIG_LINUX")
