Leency	78d8a28f6c	kernel/net: mark a TCP socket disconnected when the peer resets it .econnreset only set t_state = CLOSED, so SS_CANTSENDMORE stayed clear: send still succeeded and wiped ECONNRESET. Now it fails with ECONNRESET and a blocked recv wakes up.	2026-09-30 10:14:20 +03:00
Leency	8d0f70c92d	kernel/net: fail socket_send on a connection the peer has closed socket_send_tcp took the data into the transmit ring, cleared the socket's errorcode and only then called tcp_output, and it never looked at SS_CANTSENDMORE. After tcp_drop/tcp_close (a RST or FIN from the peer) had run socket_is_disconnected, a send therefore "succeeded" until the ring was full and then returned 0 bytes with errorcode 0 -- byte for byte the answer a healthy socket gives while the kernel drains the ring. An application writing a large request never learned the connection was dead; NetSurf on the 2009 QEMU/slirp sat 20 s per upload at ~100 KB of 25 MB with nothing to distinguish it from a slow uplink. Return -1 with the error the drop recorded (ECONNRESET, ...), or ENOTCONN when nothing was recorded, when SS_CANTSENDMORE is set.	2026-09-30 10:14:19 +03:00
