[PATCH 5.10 099/167] tcp: disable TFO blackhole logic by default

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

 



From: Wei Wang <weiwan@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 213ad73d06073b197a02476db3a4998e219ddb06 ]

Multiple complaints have been raised from the TFO users on the internet
stating that the TFO blackhole logic is too aggressive and gets falsely
triggered too often.
(e.g. https://blog.apnic.net/2021/07/05/tcp-fast-open-not-so-fast/)
Considering that most middleboxes no longer drop TFO packets, we decide
to disable the blackhole logic by setting
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_blackhole_timeout_set to 0 by default.

Fixes: cf1ef3f0719b4 ("net/tcp_fastopen: Disable active side TFO in certain scenarios")
