My understanding is that he needs this error indication when calling shutdo=
wn().

Since the release of 13.0 is almost done, can we try to fix the issue inste=
ad of reverting the commit?

Rs: agree, a good understanding where the interaction btwn stack, socket an=
d in kernel tcp user breaks is needed;

My understanding is that the problem is related to getting a local error in=
dication after
receiving a RST segment too late or not at all.

Rs: but the move of the upcall should not materially change that; i don=92t=
 have a pc here to see if any upcall actually happens on rst...
