QAbstractSocket::Unbuffered is ignored when using setSocketDescriptor()

Details

    Description

      When using

      connectToHost()
      

      QAbstractSocket::isBuffered gets set correctly. But when one uses

      setSocketDescriptor(desc, QAsbtractSocket::ConnectedState, QAbstractSocket::ReadWrite | QAbstractSocket::Unbuffered);
      

      the variable isBuffered doesn't get set.

      Thus when calling waitForDisconnected() on an unbuffered QTcpSocket, canReadNotification() calls readFromSocket() and as no data is available, 4096 bytes get allocated. In a scenario where hundreds of sockets are used, this pollutes memory a lot.

      The following code in setSocketDescriptor() right before return true; would solve the problem:

      d->isBuffered = !(openMode & Unbuffered);
