UDP sendmsg error # -95

UDP sendmsg error # -95

[shesha bhushan]

Hi,

I am using UDP to in the kernel space. I have implemented as follows. But 
the sock_sendmsg is returning "-95". Could any one let me know what is the 
problem here..

Thanking You
Shesha

==============================
        strcpy(host_ip_ch,TARG_IP);
        host_ip = ntohl(my_inet_addr(host_ip_ch));
        sprintf(host_ip_long,"%u",host_ip);
        soc_addr->sin_addr.s_addr = 
htonl(simple_strtoul(host_ip_long,NULL,0));

        soc_addr->sin_family = PF_INET;
        soc_addr->sin_port = htons(PORT_NUM);

        msg.msg_name = soc_addr;
        msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in);

        oldfs = get_fs();
        set_fs(KERNEL_DS);

        retval = sock_sendmsg(sock, &msg, send_length);

        set_fs(oldfs);

===========================================================

Doing a quick search through the code, it looks like the msg.msg_flags
may have MSG_OOB set.  You can see it in udp_sendmsg in the file udp.c
