Hello @O-ring, thank you for sharing the issue.
Could you provide version number or commit of sockperf you used.
In addition, please send your scenario that produces error from your issue description to simplify reproduction.

Hello Igor,

the version installed is the one downloaded on May 20
from the repository (it also happens with earlier versions).

As for the scenario on my end it is a Slackware Linux 14.2
system with kernel 5.15. It is a multihomed system (there
are four network cards).

Unfortunately, I cannot tell you anything about the remote
system that triggers the problem. It is not under my control.

The following processes run on the system:

sockperf sr --daemonize
sockperf sr --tcp --daemonize

the one occupying 100% of the cpu is the process launched
with the parameter "--tcp".

Usually, I wait a day and find the process at 100%. For
now I have workarounded the problem by blocking the ip
that sparks the event with the firewall.

I am available to perform tests.

Hello Igor,

Attached you can find the capture I made with tcpdump:
10.24.15.6 is the linux system where sockperf is running.

This is what is printed on the console:
