Returning 0 as inq to userspace indicates there is no more data to read, and the application needs to wait for EPOLLIN. For a connection that has received FIN from the remote peer, however, the application must continue reading until getting EOF (return value of 0 from tcp_recvmsg) or an error, if edge-triggered epoll (EPOLLET) is being used. Otherwise, the application will never receive a new EPOLLIN, since there is no epoll edge after the FIN. Return 1 when there is no data left on the queue but the connection has received FIN, so that the applications continue reading.

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.
