No, SOCK_DESTROY has no effect on TCP_TIME_WAIT sockets or any other non-full socket. When called on any socket where sk_fullsock(sk) is false, it returns EOPNOTSUPP because there is nothing to do. Its purpose is to interrupt blocked userspace socket calls, not to release resources. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
