From a4f0b001782b21663d10df983b4b208195bec66c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Garzarella Date: Mon, 18 May 2026 11:06:55 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] vsock/virtio: reset connection on receiving queue overflow When there is no more space to queue an incoming packet, the packet is silently dropped. This causes data loss without any notification to either peer, since there is no retransmission. Under normal circumstances, this should never happen. However, it could happen if the other peer doesn't respect the credit, or if the skb overhead, which we recently began to take into account with commit 059b7dbd20a6 ("vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb queue"), is too high. Fix this by resetting the connection and setting the local socket error to ENOBUFS when virtio_transport_recv_enqueue() can no longer queue a packet, so both peers are explicitly notified of the failure rather than silently losing data.
