When there is no more send buffer space and at least 1 byte was already sent then return to user space. The wait is only done when no data was sent by the sendmsg() call. This fixes smc_tx_sendmsg() which tried to always send all user data and started to wait for free send buffer space when needed. During this wait the user space program was blocked in the sendmsg() call and hence not able to receive incoming data. When both sides were in such a situation then the connection stalled forever.

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 Restructured Text 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.
