On Linux syscall returns 0, but on Qemu it fails with `Protocol not available`. According [man](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/ip.7.html) `IP_OPTIONS` on `SOCK_STREAM` socket "should work".""" reproduce = """1. Use below toy program `setsockopt.c` and compile it without optimizations like: ``` gcc -Wall -W -Wextra -std=gnu17 -pedantic setsockopt.c -o setsockopt ``` ``` #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include int main() { { int sd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); if(sd < 0) { perror("Opening stream socket error"); exit(1); } else printf("Opening stream socket....OK.\\n"); struct sockaddr_in local_address = {AF_INET, htons(1234), {inet_addr("255.255.255.255")}, {0}}; int err = connect(sd, (struct sockaddr*)&local_address, (socklen_t)16); if (err < 0) { perror("Connect error"); close(sd); } else printf("Connect...OK.\\n"); } { int sd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); if(sd < 0) { perror("Opening stream socket error"); exit(1); } else printf("Opening stream socket....OK.\\n"); char option[4] = {0}; if(setsockopt(sd, SOL_IP, IP_OPTIONS, (char *)option, sizeof(option)) < 0) { perror("setsockopt error"); close(sd); exit(1); } else printf("setsockopt...OK.\\n"); struct sockaddr_in local_address = {AF_INET, htons(1234), {inet_addr("255.255.255.255")}, {0}}; int err = connect(sd, (struct sockaddr*)&local_address, (socklen_t)16); if (err < 0) { perror("Connect error"); close(sd); } else printf("Connect...OK.\\n"); } return 0; } ``` 2. Run program on Qemu and compare output with output from x64 build. In my case it looks like: ``` root@AMDC4705:~/runtime/connect$ ./setsockopt-x64 Opening stream socket....OK. Connect error: Network is unreachable Opening stream socket....OK. setsockopt...OK. Connect error: Network is unreachable root@AMDC4705:/runtime/connect# ./setsockopt-riscv Opening stream socket....OK. Connect error: Network is unreachable Opening stream socket....OK. setsockopt error: Protocol not available ```""" additional = """In above demo option `value` is quite artificial. However I tried passing many different `option` arguments (with same `SOL_IP` + `IP_OPTIONS` combination) but always ended up with `setsockopt` failure. From the other hand on x64 it worked fine. Then I realized that appropriate path in Qemu was unimplemented: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/linux-user/syscall.c#L2141"""
