[PATCH 3.18 37/85] tcp: do not overshoot window_clamp in tcp_rcv_space_adjust()

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

 



3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 02db55718d53f9d426cee504c27fb768e9ed4ffe upstream.

While rcvbuf is properly clamped by tcp_rmem[2], rcvwin
is left to a potentially too big value.

It has no serious effect, since :
1) tcp_grow_window() has very strict checks.
2) window_clamp can be mangled by user space to any value anyway.

tcp_init_buffer_space() and companions use tcp_full_space(),
we use tcp_win_from_space() to avoid reloading sk->sk_rcvbuf
