[PATCH net-next] RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()

Show all headers | View raw

Consider the following "duelling syn" sequence between two peers A and B:
        	A		B
        	SYN1     -->
        	    	<--	SYN2
        	SYN2ACK  -->

Note that the SYN/ACK has already been sent out by TCP before
rds_tcp_accept_one() gets invoked as part of callbacks.

If the inet_addr(A) is numerically less than inet_addr(B),
the arbitration scheme in rds_tcp_accept_one() will prefer the
TCP connection triggered by SYN1, and will send a CLOSE for the
SYN2 (just after the SYN2ACK was sent).

Since B also follows the same arbitration scheme, it will send the SYN-ACK
for SYN1 that will set up a healthy ESTABLISHED connection on both sides.
B will also get a  CLOSE for SYN2, which should result in the cleanup
of the TCP state machine for SYN2, but it should not trigger any
stale RDS-TCP callbacks (such as ->writespace, ->state_change etc),
that would disrupt the progress of the SYN2 based RDS-TCP  connection.

Thus the arbitration scheme in rds_tcp_accept_one() should restore
rds_tcp callbacks for the winner before setting them up for the
new accept socket, and also make sure that conn->c_outgoing
is set to 0 so that we do not trigger any reconnect attempts on the
passive side of the tcp socket in the future, in conformance with
commit c82ac7e69efe ("net/rds: RDS-TCP: only initiate reconnect attempt
on outgoing TCP socket.")
