JOIN requests do not work in syncookie mode -- for HMAC validation, the peers nonce and the mptcp token (to obtain the desired connection socket the join is for) are required, but this information is only present in the initial syn. So either we need to drop all JOIN requests once a listening socket enters syncookie mode, or we need to store enough state to reconstruct the request socket later. This adds a state table (1024 entries) to store the data present in the MP_JOIN syn request and the random nonce used for the cookie syn/ack. When a MP_JOIN ACK passed cookie validation, the table is consulted to rebuild the request socket from it. An alternate approach would be to "cancel" syn-cookie mode and force MP_JOIN to always use a syn queue entry. However, doing so brings the backlog over the configured queue limit. v2: use req->syncookie, not (removed) want_cookie arg Suggested-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Reviewed-by: Mat Martineau <mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
