[PATCH net-next] mptcp: fix rcv buffer auto-tuning
Posted by Matthieu Baerts 9 months, 2 weeks ago
From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

The MPTCP code uses the assumption that the tcp_win_from_space() helper
does not use any TCP-specific field, and thus works correctly operating
on an MPTCP socket.

The commit dfa2f0483360 ("tcp: get rid of sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale")
broke such assumption, and as a consequence most MPTCP connections stall
on zero-window event due to auto-tuning changing the rcv buffer size
quite randomly.

Address the issue syncing again the MPTCP auto-tuning code with the TCP
one. To achieve that, factor out the windows size logic in socket
independent helpers, and reuse them in mptcp_rcv_space_adjust(). The
MPTCP level scaling_ratio is selected as the minimum one from the all
the subflows, as a worst-case estimate.

Maybe in a follow up patch we could change the prototype of this helper
to avoid future mis use :)

static inline int tcp_win_from_space(const struct tcp_sock *tp, int space)
{
}
