My understanding is that you should be getting it via
sctp_send_failure_event_event above, detailed in rfc6458#section-6.1.11.

When SCTP tears down an association, it marks the chunks in outqueue
as failed in __sctp_outq_teardown(), which then sctp_datamsg_destroy()
ends up picking up and sending notifications to the application.

I didn't check this on RHEL 8.4, though, but I believe it has support
for this RFC as well. If you have the event as above, it should be
there.

+Cc linux-sctp here to have a broader reach. We don't really use
sourceforge anymore. :-)

Cheers,
