FYI, we noticed the following commit (built with gcc-7):

the kernel test robot is right.
The patch ("can: remove obsolete empty ioctl() handler") leads to a
return value of -EOPNOTSUPP instead of the former -ENOIOCTLCMD.
As we can see in socket.c ...
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc2/source/net/socket.c#L1041
/*
* If this ioctl is unknown try to hand it down
* to the NIC driver.
*/
if (err != -ENOIOCTLCMD)
return err;
... we need to return -ENOIOCTLCMD to pass the SIOCGIFINDEX ioctl to the
NIC layer.
Therefore the entire commit needs to be *reverted* to restore the
required functionality.
If you fix the issue, kindly add following tag

Many thanks,
