Linux TCP stack we analyze exhibits behavior that seems odd to me.
The scenario is as follows (all packets have empty payloads, no window
scaling, rcv/snd window size should not be a factor):

       TEST HARNESS (CLIENT)                        LINUX SERVER

   1.  -                                          LISTEN (server listen,
then accepts)

   2.  - --> <SEQ=100><CTL=SYN>               --> SYN-RECEIVED

   3.  - <-- <SEQ=300><ACK=101><CTL=SYN,ACK>  <-- SYN-RECEIVED

   4.  - --> <SEQ=101><ACK=301><CTL=ACK>      --> ESTABLISHED

   5.  - <-- <SEQ=301><ACK=101><CTL=FIN,ACK>  <-- FIN WAIT-1 (server
opts to close the data connection calling "close" on the connection
socket)

   6.  - --> <SEQ=101><ACK=99999><CTL=FIN,ACK> --> CLOSING (client sends
FIN,ACK with not yet sent acknowledgement number)

   7.  - <-- <SEQ=302><ACK=102><CTL=ACK>      <-- CLOSING (ACK is 102
instead of 101, why?)

... (silence from CLIENT)

   8.  - <-- <SEQ=301><ACK=102><CTL=FIN,ACK>  <-- CLOSING
(retransmission, again ACK is 102)

Now, note that packet 6 while having the expected sequence number,
acknowledges something that wasn't sent by the server. So I would
expect
the packet to maybe prompt an ACK response from the server, and then be
ignored. Yet it is not ignored and actually leads to an increase of the
acknowledgement number in the server's retransmission of the FIN,ACK
packet. The explanation I found is that the FIN  in packet 6 was
processed, despite the acknowledgement number being unacceptable.
Further experiments indeed show that the server processes this FIN,
transitioning to CLOSING, then on receiving an ACK for the FIN it had
send in packet 5, the server (or better said connection) transitions
from CLOSING to TIME_WAIT (as signaled by netstat).

Indeed, tcp_rcv_state_process() calls tcp_ack() but
does not exploit the @acceptable status but for TCP_SYN_RECV
state.

What we want here is to send a challenge ACK, if not in TCP_SYN_RECV
state. TCP_FIN_WAIT1 state is not the only state we should fix.

Add a FLAG_NO_CHALLENGE_ACK so that tcp_rcv_state_process()
can choose to send a challenge ACK and discard the packet instead
of wrongly change socket state.

With help from Neal Cardwell.

      net_sched: only create filter chains for new filters/actions · 367a8ce8
      WANG Cong authored 
      tcf_chain_get() always creates a new filter chain if not found
in existing ones. This is totally unnecessary when we get or
delete filters, new chain should be only created for new filters
(or new actions).

      net: sched: cls_api: make reclassify return all the way back to the original tp · ee538dce
      Jiri Pirko authored 
      With the introduction of chain goto action, the reclassification would
cause the re-iteration of the actual chain. It makes more sense to restart
the whole thing and re-iterate starting from the original tp - start
of chain 0.

====================
mlx5-update-2017-05-23

First patch from Leon, came to remove the redundant usage of mlx5_vzalloc,
and directly use kvzalloc across all mlx5 drivers.

2nd patch from Noa, adds new device IDs into the supported devices list.

3rd and 4th patches from Ilan are adding the basic infrastructure and
support for Mellanox's mlx5 FPGA.

Last two patches from Tariq came to modify the outdated driver version
reported in ethtool and in mlx5_ib to more reflect the current driver state
and remove the redundant date string reported in the version.

      efi-pstore: Fix write/erase id tracking · c10e8031
      Kees Cook authored 
      Prior to the pstore interface refactoring, the "id" generated during
a backend pstore_write() was only retained by the internal pstore
inode tracking list. Additionally the "part" was ignored, so EFI
would encode this in the id. This corrects the misunderstandings
and correctly sets "id" during pstore_write(), and uses "part"
directly during pstore_erase().

      Merge branch 'dsa-distribute-switch-events' · 1db3a610
      David S. Miller authored 
      Vivien Didelot says:

====================
net: dsa: distribute switch events

DSA is by nature the support for a switch fabric, which can be composed
of a single, or multiple interconnected Ethernet switch chips.

The current DSA core behavior is to identify the slave port targeted by
a request (e.g. adding a VLAN entry), and program the switch chip to
which it belongs accordingly.

This is problematic in a multi-chip environment, since all chips of a
fabric must be aware of most configuration changes. Here are some
concrete examples in a 3-chip environment:

         [CPU].................... (mdio)
    (eth0) |   :       :          :
          _|_____    _______    _______
         [__sw0__]--[__sw1__]--[__sw2__]
          |  |  |    |  |  |    |  |  |
          v  v  v    v  v  v    v  v  v
          p1 p2 p3   p4 p5 p6   p7 p8 p9

If you add a VLAN entry on p7, sw2 gets programmed, but frames won't
reach the CPU interface in a VLAN filtered setup. sw0 and sw1 also need
to be programmed. The same problem comes with MAC addresses (FDB, MDB),
or ageing time changes for instance.

This patch series uses the notification chain introduced for bridging,
to notify not only bridge, but switchdev attributes and objects events
to all switch chips of the fabric.

An ugly debug message printing the ignored event and switch info in the
code handling the switch VLAN events would give us:

    # bridge vlan add dev p7 vid 42
    sw0: ignoring DSA_NOTIFIER_VLAN_ADD for sw2 (prepare phase)
    sw1: ignoring DSA_NOTIFIER_VLAN_ADD for sw2 (prepare phase)
    sw0: ignoring DSA_NOTIFIER_VLAN_ADD for sw2 (commit phase)
    sw1: ignoring DSA_NOTIFIER_VLAN_ADD for sw2 (commit phase)

To achieve that, patches 1-8 change the scope of the bridge and
switchdev callbacks from the DSA slave device to the generic DSA port,
so that the port-wide API can be used later for switch ports not exposed
to userspace, such as CPU and DSA links.

Patches 9-15 move the DSA port specific functions in a new port.c file.

Patches 16-20 introduce new events to notify the fabric about switchdev
attributes and objects manipulation.

This patch series only adds the plumbing to support a distributed
configuration, but for the moment, each switch chip ignores events from
other chips of the fabric, to keep the current behavior.

The next patch series will add support for cross-chip configuration of
bridge ageing time, VLAN and MAC address databases operations, etc.

      net: dsa: add notifier for ageing time · 1faabf74
      Vivien Didelot authored 
      This patch keeps the port-wide ageing time handling code in
dsa_port_ageing_time, pushes the requested ageing time value in a new
switch fabric notification, and moves the switch-wide ageing time
handling code in dsa_switch_ageing_time.

This has the effect that now not only the switch that the target port
belongs to can be programmed, but all switches composing the switch
fabric. For the moment, keep the current behavior and ignore other
switches.
