Subject: [PATCH net v2 3/3] ovpn: use datagram_poll_queue for socket readiness in TCP
Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2025 09:37:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251020073731.76589-4-ralf@mandelbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251020073731.76589-1-ralf@mandelbit.com>

openvpn TCP encapsulation uses a custom queue to deliver packets to
userspace. Currently it relies on datagram_poll, which checks
sk_receive_queue, leading to false readiness signals when that queue
contains non-userspace packets.

Switch ovpn_tcp_poll to use datagram_poll_queue with the peer's
user_queue, ensuring poll only signals readiness when userspace data is
actually available. Also refactor ovpn_tcp_poll in order to enforce the
assumption we can make on the lifetime of ovpn_sock and peer.

Fixes: 11851cbd60ea ("ovpn: implement TCP transport")
