Bug#542633: openvz: [UBC]: Endless loop in __sk_stream_wait_memory.
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.26-18
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The loop in __sk_stream_wait_memory when tcp_sendmsg asks to wait for
TCPSNDBUF space is endless when the timeout is not specified. The only way
out is to queue a signal for that process.
Lets return a status flag from ub_sock_snd_queue_add that UB space is
available. This is enough to make a correct decision to leave the cycle.
