This is linked to a discussion we had a few weeks ago: not supporting TCP_KEEP* socket options is preventing MPTCP to be used in some apps or libraries like it was the case in GoLang recently. Supporting them is not difficult, it should have probably done before, when SO_KEEPALIVE support has been added. Supporting them is easy and isolated from the rest, it sounds safe enough to add a Fixes tag, and check with the stable team to backport them. I understand it can be a bit controversial, but it would unnecessary delay (1 or 2 years?) some deployments, for something that simple. While at it, getsockopt(SO_KEEPALIVE) is now returning the expected value. The manipulation of these different socket options can be verified with this simple packetdrill test: --tolerance_usecs=100000 `../common/defaults.sh` 0.0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_MPTCP) = 3 +0 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0 +0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0 +0 listen(3, 1) = 0 +0 < S 0:0(0) win 8000 <mss 1024, sackOK, nop, nop, nop, wscale 0, mpcapable v1 flags[flag_h] nokey> +0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460, nop, nop, sackOK, nop, wscale 8, mpcapable v1 flags[flag_h] key[skey]> +0.01 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 8000 <mpcapable v1 flags[flag_h] key[ckey=2, skey]> +0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4 // Set and check the different Keep-Alive options. +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, [0], [4]) = 0 +0 setsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, [1], 4) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, [1], [4]) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPIDLE, [7200], [4]) = 0 +0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPIDLE, [7200], 4) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPIDLE, [7200], [4]) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPINTVL, [75], [4]) = 0 +0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPINTVL, [10], 4) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPINTVL, [10], [4]) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPCNT, [9], [4]) = 0 +0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPCNT, [2], 4) = 0 +0 getsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_KEEPCNT, [2], [4]) = 0 Signed-off-by: Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) <matttbe@kernel.org> --- Changes in v2: - Addressed Paolo's comments in patch 2/2, see the individual changelog. - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240508-mptcp-tcp-keepalive-sockopts-v1-0-fdf7e03e14c4@kernel.org --- Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) (2): mptcp: SO_KEEPALIVE: fix getsockopt support mptcp: fix full TCP keep-alive support net/mptcp/protocol.h | 3 +++ net/mptcp/sockopt.c | 60 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 2 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- base-commit: a64044939fd33676d7098eb08397e65e83d278ed change-id: 20240507-mptcp-tcp-keepalive-sockopts-546d3b1f3256 Best regards, -- Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) <matttbe@kernel.org>
