      [TCP]: Fix shrinking windows with window scaling · 607bfbf2
      Patrick McHardy authored
      When selecting a new window, tcp_select_window() tries not to shrink
      the offered window by using the maximum of the remaining offered window
      size and the newly calculated window size. The newly calculated window
      size is always a multiple of the window scaling factor, the remaining
      window size however might not be since it depends on rcv_wup/rcv_nxt.
      This means we're effectively shrinking the window when scaling it down.
      
      
      The dump below shows the problem (scaling factor 2^7):
      
      - Window size of 557 (71296) is advertised, up to 3111907257:
      
      IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . ack 3111835961 win 557 <...>
      
      - New window size of 514 (65792) is advertised, up to 3111907217, 40 bytes
        below the last end:
      
      IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . 3113575668:3113577116(1448) ack 3111841425 win 514 <...>
      
      The number 40 results from downscaling the remaining window:
      
      3111907257 - 3111841425 = 65832
      65832 / 2^7 = 514
      65832 % 2^7 = 40
      
      If the sender uses up the entire window before it is shrunk, this can have
      chaotic effects on the connection. When sending ACKs, tcp_acceptable_seq()
      will notice that the window has been shrunk since tcp_wnd_end() is before
      tp->snd_nxt, which makes it choose tcp_wnd_end() as sequence number.
      This will fail the receivers checks in tcp_sequence() however since it
      is before it's tp->rcv_wup, making it respond with a dupack.
      
      If both sides are in this condition, this leads to a constant flood of
      ACKs until the connection times out.
      
      Make sure the window is never shrunk by aligning the remaining window to
      the window scaling factor.

      netpoll: zap_completion_queue: adjust skb->users counter · 8a455b08
      Jarek Poplawski authored
      zap_completion_queue() retrieves skbs from completion_queue where they have
      zero skb->users counter.  Before dev_kfree_skb_any() it should be non-zero
      yet, so it's increased now.
