Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 13:14:01 -0200 From: Bruno Jesus <00cpxxx@...il.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: IPX socket shutdown() is not implemented Hi, as suggested by Alan [1], I'm spreading this in the list hoping that someone with a better understanding can help solving this issue. >From bugzilla [2]: == With no support to shutdown a parallel (other thread) poll call is not waken up so applications hang indefinitely while waiting for an answer. Still in the latest development version as seen in: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/net/ipx/af_ipx.c?id=refs/tags/v3.13-rc5#n1966 The problem was found while debugging a windows game through wine, the game is Dune 2000 and the sister bug is http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6941 == I understand that IPX is somewhat defunct nowadays but at the same time by looking in the inet_shutdown function I believe it can be simple to implement the same for IPX.
