[PATCH] TCP simultaneous open support

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

 



Hi Patrick,

The patch below adds supporting TCP simultaneous open to conntrack. The 
unused LISTEN state is replaced by a new state (SYN_SENT2) denoting the 
second SYN sent from the reply direction in the new case. The state table 
is updated and the function tcp_in_window is modified to handle 
simultaneous open.

The functionality can fairly easily be tested by socat. A sample tcpdump 
recording

(correct), ack 3383710134 win 2920 <nop,nop,timestamp 824213 173447423>

and the corresponding netlink events:

    [NEW] tcp      6 120 SYN_SENT src=192.168.0.254 dst=192.168.0.1 sport=2020 dport=2020 [UNREPLIED] src=192.168.0.1 dst=192.168.0.254 sport=2020 dport=2020
 [UPDATE] tcp      6 120 LISTEN src=192.168.0.254 dst=192.168.0.1 sport=2020 dport=2020 src=192.168.0.1 dst=192.168.0.254 sport=2020 dport=2020
 [UPDATE] tcp      6 60 SYN_RECV src=192.168.0.254 dst=192.168.0.1 sport=2020 dport=2020 src=192.168.0.1 dst=192.168.0.254 sport=2020 dport=2020
 [UPDATE] tcp      6 432000 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.0.254 dst=192.168.0.1 sport=2020 dport=2020 src=192.168.0.1 dst=192.168.0.254 sport=2020 dport=2020 [ASSURED]

The RST packet was dropped in the raw table, thus it did not reach 
conntrack.  nfnetlink_conntrack is unpatched so it shows the new SYN_SENT2 
state as the old unused LISTEN.

With TCP simultaneous open support we satisfy REQ-2 in RFC 5382 ;-).

Additional minor correction in this patch is that in order to catch
uninitialized reply directions, "td_maxwin == 0" is used instead of
"td_end == 0" because the former can't be true except in uninitialized
state while td_end may accidentally be equal to zero in the mid of a
connection.
