[PATCH net] sctp: fix an issue that plpmtu can never go to complete state

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

 



When doing plpmtu probe, the probe size is growing every time when it
receives the ACK during the Search state until the probe fails. When
the failure occurs, pl.probe_high is set and it goes to the Complete
state.

However, if the link pmtu is huge, like 65535 in loopback_dev, the probe
eventually keeps using SCTP_MAX_PLPMTU as the probe size and never fails.
Because of that, pl.probe_high can not be set, and the plpmtu probe can
never go to the Complete state.

Fix it by setting pl.probe_high to SCTP_MAX_PLPMTU when the probe size
grows to SCTP_MAX_PLPMTU in sctp_transport_pl_recv(). Also, increase
the probe size only when the next is less than SCTP_MAX_PLPMTU.

Fixes: b87641aff9e7 ("sctp: do state transition when a probe succeeds on HB ACK recv path")
