The function sctp_sf_eat_sack_6_2 now performs the Verification Tag validation, Chunk length validation, Bogu check, and also the detection of out-of-order SACK based on the RFC2960 Section 6.2 at the beginning, and finally performs the further processing of SACK. The trace_sctp_probe now triggered before the above necessary validation and check. this patch is to do the trace_sctp_probe after the chunk sanity tests, but keep doing trace if the SACK received is out of order, for the out-of-order SACK is valuable to congestion control debugging. v1->v2: - keep doing SCTP trace if the SACK is out of order as Marcelo's suggestion.
