           Summary: ioctl(fd,TCSBRK,1) on socket yields EFAULT, expected
                    EINVAL/ENOTTY
    Kernel Version: 2.6.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
             Owner: shemminger@...l.org
         Submitter: Joerg-Cyril.Hoehle@...ystems.com


Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: unknown
Distribution: Ubuntu Dapper, but confirmed from some others distros as well.
Hardware environment: Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook C1110, i686 centrino laptop
Software environment: ubuntu Gnome desktop, sshd, netcat

Problem description:
ioctl(TCSBRK) yields EFAULT when invoked on a socket.  An error is to
be expected, but not an address error, which is an indication of a serious
fault. EINVAL or ENOTTY are typical and acceptable errno values as the
following summary shows
(and EOPNOTSUPP also seems possible on Darwin Mac OS X).

This bug affects tcdrain(3), because tcdrain(fd) is equivalent to
ioctl(fd,TCSBRK,1) on Linux and Solaris.

ioctl(TCSBRK,1)	errno
pty		0
pipe		22/EINVAL
/dev/null	25/ENOTTY
reg_file	25/ENOTTY
socket		14/EFAULT

kernel version:
Linux version 2.6.15-27-686 (buildd@...ranova) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu
4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 16 02:13:27 UTC 2006

Steps to reproduce:
/* tcdrain() returns EFAULT (a serious error) on sockets
 * tcdrain() is equivalent to ioctl(TCSBRK) on Linux and Solaris
 */
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <termios.h>            /* TCSBRK is 0x5409 */
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main () {
  int i;
  for (i=0; i<=2; i++) {
    int retval, save;
    errno = 0;
    retval = ioctl(i,TCSBRK,1);
    save = errno;
    /* printf("ioctl(%d,TCSBRK,1)=(%d,%d)\n",i,retval,save); */
    printf("ioctl(%d,TCSBRK,1)=(%d,%d=%s)\n",i,retval,save,
	   save ? strerror(save) : "");
  }
  return 0;
}
