Subject: [PATCH] make {send|recv}msg return code 1003.1 compatible
Date: Wed, 9 Jul 2003 21:36:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030709193628.GR2702@rei.rakuen> (raw)

Hello

1003.1 says:

[EMSGSIZE]
    The msg_iovlen member of the msghdr structure pointed to by
    message is less than or equal to 0, or is greater than
    {IOV_MAX}.

The patch changes the return code of {send|recv}msg from EINVAL
to EMSGSIZE.
