rto_min should be smaller than rto_max while rto_max should be larger
than rto_min. Add two proc_handler for the checking. Add the check in
sctp_setsockopt_rtoinfo.

You can not do the check for srto_min < 1.  The following is the text
from the spec:
    All times are given in milliseconds.  A value of 0, when modifying
    the parameters, indicates that the current value should not be
    changed.

Yes, Your are right, I found it in draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-14.txt.
Thanks.

So, it is valid for a user to pass in a value of 0.  Also, I am not sure
if it makes sense to bind the upper limit here, as well.

-vlad

Here, I am not sure as well. I think it should like what we do to the
init_net.sctp.rto_max when set larger than timer_max. Just not change the value.


So, the basic reason that sysctl is limited is that it is a default
for all sctp association on the system.  It makes some sense to limit
what the max value here could be.  Limiting it to double suggested
RTO.MAX would only make it 2 minutes and may be insufficient for some
of the high latency low-throughput wireless links.  Making it about an
hour should be fine...  This would be a separate patch though...

Here, you mean that we should use 3600*1000 rather than 86400000? So
we should use another patch to fix that after my patchs?

Limiting the user-supplied value is not as appropriate since the
assumption is that user application may know better what it's
requirements are and it is not up to the stack to limit those.  As
long as the user value is withing the usable range (and the kernel
will already knows how and does limit this range), we should not
limit this further.

-vlad

Agree, So I should check like this:
!srto_min || !srto_max || srto_min > srto_max ?
And no need to add macros for checking.

No, I think this would have to be a little more complicated :(
Remember it's ok to have srto_min == 0 and srto_max == 0.  It just
means that no change happens.

You may need to do something like

   unsigned long rto_max, rto_min;

   if (rtoinfo.srto_max)
      rto_max = msecs_to_jiffies(rtoinfo.srto_max);
   else
      rto_max = asoc ? asoc->rto_max : sp->rto_max;

   if (rtoinfo.srto_min)
      rto_min = msecs_to_jiffies(rtoinfo.srto_min);
   else
      rto_min = asoc ? asoc->rto_min : sp->rto_min;

   if (rto_min > rto_max)
       return -EINVAL;

   if (asoc) {
       asoc->rto_min = rto_min;
       asoc->rto_max = rto_max;
    ...
    etc....

This way we make sure that the user that supplied just rto_min or just
rto_max didn't set them so that min > max.

-vlad

Hi vald,

I found that we had checked the value of 0 in sctp_setsockopt_rtoinfo.
So I only do this:

if (asoc) {
+	if (msecs_to_jiffies(rtoinfo.srto_min) >
+                   msecs_to_jiffies(rtoinfo.srto_max))
+                       return -EINVAL;
	...

What if the value in rtoinfo is 0?  Right now, the doesn't do any
comparisons and just assigns values into the assoc or sp as long
as the user provided a non-0 value.

Now imagine the user did this:

     rtoinfo.srto_min = 0
     rtoinfo.srto_max = 5;
     setsockopt();

     ....  later on...

     rtoinfo.srto_min = 8;
     rtoinfo.srto_max = 0;
     setsockopt();

No you have a situation where min > max. However both calls were valid.

My suggestion to you, split the sysctl change into a separate patch and
and do socket option handling in its own patch.  Also, please be sure
to test it with different variants of the calls.

-vlad

Yes, You are right. I get it. I just see I can do it with a smaller change while
I not test it. Thanks for your suggestion. I will send these out after I test them.

Regards.
Wang


} else {
	...
+	if (rtoinfo.srto_min > rtoinfo.srto_max)
+                       return -EINVAL;
	...
}

There because we set value to asoc and sp is not same. So I add the
check into two path.

Wang


Thanks.
