We've noticed that NFS can hang when using RPC over TLS on an unstable
connection, and investigation shows that the RPC layer is stuck in a tight
loop attempting to transmit, but forever getting -EBADMSG back from the
underlying network. The loop begins when tcp_sendmsg_locked() returns
-EPIPE to tls_tx_records(), but that error is converted to -EBADMSG when
calling the socket's error reporting handler.
Instead of converting errors from tcp_sendmsg_locked(), let's pass them
along in this path. The RPC layer handles -EPIPE by reconnecting the
transport, which prevents the endless attempts to transmit on a broken
connection.

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.
