[PULL v3 47/85] libvhost-user: set msg.msg_control to NULL when it is empty
Posted by Michael S. Tsirkin 2 months, 2 weeks ago
From: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com>

On some OS (e.g. macOS) sendmsg() returns -1 (errno EINVAL) if
the `struct msghdr` has the field `msg_controllen` set to 0, but
`msg_control` is not NULL.
