Merge branch 'mptcp-fixes-for-ulp-a-deadlock-and-netlink-docs'
Mat Martineau says: ==================== mptcp: Fixes for ULP, a deadlock, and netlink docs Two of the MPTCP fixes in this set are related to the TCP_ULP socket option with MPTCP sockets operating in "fallback" mode (the connection has reverted to regular TCP). The other issues are an observed deadlock and missing parameter documentation in the MPTCP netlink API. Patch 1 marks TCP_ULP as unsupported earlier in MPTCP setsockopt code, so the fallback code path in the MPTCP layer does not pass the TCP_ULP option down to the subflow TCP socket. Patch 2 makes sure a TCP fallback socket returned to userspace by accept()ing on a MPTCP listening socket does not allow use of the "mptcp" TCP_ULP type. That ULP is intended only for use by in-kernel MPTCP subflows. Patch 3 fixes the possible deadlock when sending data and there are socket option changes to sync to the subflows. Patch 4 makes sure all MPTCP netlink event parameters are documented in the MPTCP uapi header. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211214231604.211016-1-mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
