ioctl(SIOCINQ) calls unix_inq_len() that checks sk->sk_state first
and returns -EINVAL if it's TCP_LISTEN.
Then, for SOCK_STREAM sockets, unix_inq_len() returns the number of
bytes in recvq.
However, unix_inq_len() does not hold unix_state_lock(), and the
concurrent listen() might change the state after checking sk->sk_state.
If the race occurs, 0 is returned for the listener, instead of -EINVAL,
because the length of skb with embryo is 0.
We could hold unix_state_lock() in unix_inq_len(), but it's overkill
given the result is true for pre-listen() TCP_CLOSE state.
So, let's use READ_ONCE() for sk->sk_state in unix_inq_len().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
