Research direction

Start by locating rr's handling of Linux socketcalls and the paths that process MSG_DONTWAIT. Compare the relevant socket operations to determine which ones do not honor the flag, then identify existing tests covering nonblocking behavior. Done means all relevant socketcalls consistently honor MSG_DONTWAIT and the behavior is covered by tests.
