Resolve SCTP association hangs observed during SCTP stress
testing.  Observable symptoms include communications hangs
with data being held in the association lobby (ordering)
queue.  Close examination of reassembly/ordering queues shows
duplicated packets.

In sctp_tsnmap_grow(), correct off-by-one errors when copying
and resizing the tsnmap.  If max_tsn_seen is in the LSB of the
word, this bit can be lost, causing the corresponding packet
to be transmitted again and to be entered as a duplicate into
the SCTP reassembly/ordering queues.

Patch applies to linux-3.8 kernel.

No that I think about this a bit more, this should be gap + 1. If you do that, you might as well call sctp_tsnmap_grow() with gap+1 as argument and then can just use the 'gap' everywhere inside.

  		return 0;

-	inc = ALIGN((gap - map->len),BITS_PER_LONG) + SCTP_TSN_MAP_INCREMENT;
+	inc = ALIGN((gap - map->len + 1), BITS_PER_LONG)
+		+ SCTP_TSN_MAP_INCREMENT;
  	len = min_t(u16, map->len + inc, SCTP_TSN_MAP_SIZE);

  	new = kzalloc(len>>3, GFP_ATOMIC);
  	if (!new)
  		return 0;

-	bitmap_copy(new, map->tsn_map, map->max_tsn_seen - map->base_tsn);
+	bitmap_copy(new, map->tsn_map, map->max_tsn_seen - map->base_tsn + 1);

Can simplify that this by using map->cumulative_tsn_ack_point instead of base_tsn.

-vlad

  	kfree(map->tsn_map);
  	map->tsn_map = new;
  	map->len = len;
