Subject: [PATCH v2] selinux: do not report error on connect(AF_UNSPEC)
Date: Fri, 10 May 2019 15:47:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <34870696b95f9cf48b5436df46e27dddd054858c.1557492319.git.pabeni@redhat.com> (raw)

calling connect(AF_UNSPEC) on an already connected TCP socket is an
established way to disconnect() such socket. After commit 68741a8adab9
("selinux: Fix ltp test connect-syscall failure") it no longer works
and, in the above scenario connect() fails with EAFNOSUPPORT.

Fix the above skipping the checks when the address family is not
AF_INET{4,6} - we don't have any port to validate, but leave the
SCTP code path untouched, as it has specific constraints.

Fixes: 68741a8adab9 ("selinux: Fix ltp test connect-syscall failure")

v1 -> v2:
 - avoid validation for AF_UNSPEC
