in the case of the socket which is bound to an adress
there is no sense to create a path in the next attempts

here is a program that shows the issue:

int main()
{
    int s;
    struct sockaddr_un a;

    s = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
    if (s<0)
        perror("socket() failed\n");

    printf("First bind()\n");

    memset(&a, 0, sizeof(a));
    a.sun_family = AF_UNIX;
    strncpy(a.sun_path, "/tmp/.first_bind", sizeof(a.sun_path));

    if ((bind(s, (const struct sockaddr*) &a, sizeof(a))) == -1)
        perror("bind() failed\n");

    printf("Second bind()\n");

    memset(&a, 0, sizeof(a));
    a.sun_family = AF_UNIX;
    strncpy(a.sun_path, "/tmp/.first_bind_failed", sizeof(a.sun_path));

    if ((bind(s, (const struct sockaddr*) &a, sizeof(a))) == -1)
        perror("bind() failed\n");
}

kda@SLES15-SP2:~> ./test
First bind()
Second bind()
bind() failed
: Invalid argument

kda@SLES15-SP2:~> ls -la /tmp/.first_bind
.first_bind         .first_bind_failed

Well, after your change the check on u->addr is no longer protected by
u->bindlock. Is that okay?

Since we're just checking the assigned address and it's an atomic
operation I think it's okay.
A process performing binding is still protected.

Thanks!

The access to the variable may be atomic, but what protects two
concurrent binds() from progressing past the check and binding to
different paths?

I don't know this code at all, but looks to me like the pattern is
basically:

	lock()
	if (obj->thing)
		goto err; /* already bound to a thing */

	thing = alloc()
	setup_thing(thing);

	obj->thing = thing;
err:
	unlock()

> A process performing binding is still protected.

Isn't checking "did someone already bind" not part of the process of
binding?
