>Description:
Posix getsockopt(2) states that "If the size of the option value is
greater than option_len, the value stored in the object pointed to by
the option_value argument shall be silently truncated."
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/getsockopt.html
Currently EINVAL is returned instead, which causes issues with e.g.
this code sketch:
struct tcp_info tcp_info;
socklen_t len;
len = sizeof(uint8_t); /* only retrieve conn. state */
if (getsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_INFO, &tcp_info, &len))
err(2, "getsockopt");
Here is a patch proposal.
