[PATCH V3 net-next 1/5] tcp: TCP experimental option for SMC - definitions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ursula Braun <ursula.braun@xxxxxxxxxx>

The SMC-R protocol defines dynamic discovery of peers. This is done by
implementing experimental TCP options as defined in RFC6994. The TCP code
needs to be extended to support RFC6994.

Setting the TCP experimental option for SMC-R [2] will be triggered from
kernel exploiters like the new SMC-R socket family by setting a new
flag "syn_smc" on struct tcp_sock of the connecting and the listening
socket. If the client peer is SMC-R capable, flag syn_smc is kept on the
connecting socket after the 3-way TCP handshake, otherwise it is reset.
If the server peer is SMC-R capable, the new connected TCP socket has
the new flag set, otherwise not.

Code snippet client:
  tcp_sk(sock->sk)->syn_smc = 1;
  rc = kernel_connect(sock, addr, alen, flags);
  if (tcp_sk(sock->sk)->syn_smc) {
          /* switch to smc for this connection */

Code snippet server:
  tcp_sk(sock->sk)->syn_smc = 1;
  rc = kernel_listen(sock, backlog);
  rc = kernel_accept(sock, &newsock, 0);
  if (tcp_sk(newsock->sk)->syn_smc) {
          /* switch to smc for this connection */

References:

    https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc6994.txt
[2] IANA ExID SMCR:
    http://www.iana.org/assignments/tcp-parameters/tcp-parameters.xhtml#tcp-exids

This patch has already been posted in June 2013, but Dave Miller has
postponed applying till the user of the new flags, ie. the entire SMC-R
protocol stack is implemented.
