This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tcp: make retransmitted SKB fit into the send window to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tcp-make-retransmitted-skb-fit-into-the-send-window.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 291a2f27ac6fa9472cb5d28b7e93055d1abe1efe Author: Yonglong Li <liyonglong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 11 17:47:18 2022 +0800 tcp: make retransmitted SKB fit into the send window [ Upstream commit 536a6c8e05f95e3d1118c40ae8b3022ee2d05d52 ] current code of __tcp_retransmit_skb only check TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq in send window, and TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq_end maybe out of send window. If receiver has shrunk his window, and skb is out of new window, it should retransmit a smaller portion of the payload. test packetdrill script: 0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3 +0 fcntl(3, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) +0 fcntl(3, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 +0 connect(3, ..., ...) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress) +0 > S 0:0(0) win 65535 <mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 100 ecr 0,nop,wscale 8> +.05 < S. 0:0(0) ack 1 win 6000 <mss 1000,nop,nop,sackOK> +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1 +0 write(3, ..., 10000) = 10000 +0 > . 1:2001(2000) ack 1 win 65535 +0 > . 2001:4001(2000) ack 1 win 65535 +0 > . 4001:6001(2000) ack 1 win 65535 +.05 < . 1:1(0) ack 4001 win 1001 and tcpdump show: 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 1:2001, ack 1, win 65535, length 2000 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 2001:4001, ack 1, win 65535, length 2000 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [P.], seq 4001:5001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 5001:6001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000 192.0.2.1.8080 > 192.168.226.67.55: Flags [.], ack 4001, win 1001, length 0 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 5001:6001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000 192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [P.], seq 4001:5001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000 when cient retract window to 1001, send window is [4001,5002], but TLP send 5001-6001 packet which is out of send window.
