Currently, kernel would set MSG_CTRUNC flag if msg_control buffer
wasn't provided and SO_PASSCRED was set or if there was pending SCM_RIGHTS.
For some reason we have no corresponding check for SO_PASSSEC.
In the recvmsg(2) doc we have:
MSG_CTRUNC
indicates that some control data was discarded due to lack
of space in the buffer for ancillary data.
So, we need to set MSG_CTRUNC flag for all types of SCM.
This change can break applications those don't check MSG_CTRUNC flag.

Unless I'm missing something I don't think this will actually result in a userspace visible change as put_cmsg() already has a number of checks which set the MSG_CTRUNC flag if necessary (including if no control buffer is passed, e.g. msg_control == NULL).

Yes you are right. I found this check suspicious while working on SCM_PIDFD (which is not yet submitted to LKML), I think it is worth fixing that check anyway just for consistency reasons. > > Regardless, it looks fine to me. > > Acked-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com> Thanks, Paul!
