However in the case sock_error returned an error, the error code was then ignored, and recvmmsg returned 0. Change the error path of recvmmsg to correctly return the error code of sock_error. The bug was triggered by using recvmmsg on a CAN interface which was not up. Linux 4.6 and later return 0 in this case while earlier releases returned -ENETDOWN.
