Hi all,
I'm reading the source code of LK-SCTP and find something that I
couldn't understand on the SFR-CACC feature of LK-SCTP, which might be a
bug.
When a sender receiving a SACK, ***sctp_check_transmitted()*** would be
invoked to update the state variables related to SFR-CACC, including
***highest_new_tsn_in_sack*** and ***cacc_saw_newack***.
---------------------------------------------------------
The scripts to update ***highest_new_tsn_in_sack*** is as follow.
Function ***sctp_acked*** checks if the tsn is acked(EITHER cumulatively
OR selectively) in the sack reply.
---------------------------------------------------------
if(sctp_acked(sack, tsn)) {
......
*highest_new_tsn_in_sack = tsn;
......
}
---------------------------------------------------------
The scripts to upate ***cacc_saw_newack*** is as follow. It checks if
the tsn is less/euqal than the cumulatively acked TSN ONLY in the sack
reply, which is INCONSISTENCY with the abovementioned.
---------------------------------------------------------
if (TSN_lte(tsn, sack_ctsn)) {// sack_ctsn is cumulatively-acked
......
if (!tchunk->tsn_gap_acked) {
if (transport && sack->num_gap_ack_blocks &&
q->asoc->peer.primary_path->cacc.changeover_active)
transport->cacc.cacc_saw_newack = 1;
}
......
}
I would appreicate if anyone could confirm this is a work-as-design or a
bug?
Cheers!
