Subject: [PATCH] socket.7: Correctly describe SO_SNDTIMEO for connect
Date: Thu,  8 Nov 2012 07:55:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1352390123-28658-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)

From: Andi Kleen <ak-VuQAYsv1563Yd54FQh9/CA@public.gmane.org>

When SO_SNDTIMEO is set before connect() connect may return EWOULDBLOCK
when the timeout fires. Describe this correctly.
