This UDP socket is unconnected. If asynchronous error notifications are received on it, this is arguably a TCP/IP stack bug. Thanks, Florian

Stevens says that this can happen on connected sockets only. Both TCPv2 and UNIX Network Programming have detailed explanations. I can summarize those if you don't have access. The only quoted exception is Linux, but the kernel behavior changed around 2.4.0. Thanks, Florian

This entire discussion is specific to unconnected sockets, where the application has no way to match error responses to sent packets (unless IP_RECVERR is set and the information is received as ancillary data).

Ah, ok, yes, I misunderstood "connected" above. > This entire discussion is specific to unconnected sockets, where the > application has no way to match error responses to sent packets (unless > IP_RECVERR is set and the information is received as ancillary data). Indeed. I have reverted my commit. Thanks, Samuel
