I noticed flakes in a packetdrill test, expecting an epoll_wait() to return EPOLLERR | EPOLLHUP on a failed connect() attempt, after multiple SYN retransmits. It sometimes return EPOLLERR only. The issue is that tcp_write_err(): 1) writes an error in sk->sk_err, 2) calls sk_error_report(), 3) then calls tcp_done(). tcp_done() is writing SHUTDOWN_MASK into sk->sk_shutdown, among other things. Problem is that the awaken user thread (from 2) sk_error_report()) might call tcp_poll() before tcp_done() has written sk->sk_shutdown. tcp_poll() only sees a non zero sk->sk_err and returns EPOLLERR. This patch fixes the issue by making sure to call sk_error_report() after tcp_done(). tcp_write_err() also lacks an smp_wmb(). We can reuse tcp_done_with_error() to factor out the details, as Neal suggested.
