Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or
SYN/ACK messages.

This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu
overhead.

Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes
the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40
bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload.

In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value
to a saner value.

We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility
reasons.

Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value
of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value
in commit c39508d6f118 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.")
from 64 to 88.

We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

CVE-2019-11479 -- tcp mss hardcoded to 48

Instead of relying on rps_needed, it is safer to use a separate
static key, since we do not want to enable TCP rx_skb_cache
by default. This feature can cause huge increase of memory
usage on hosts with millions of sockets.

====================
pull-request: bpf 2019-06-07

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix several bugs in riscv64 JIT code emission which forgot to clear high
   32-bits for alu32 ops, from Björn and Luke with selftests covering all
   relevant BPF alu ops from Björn and Jiong.

2) Two fixes for UDP BPF reuseport that avoid calling the program in case of
   __udp6_lib_err and UDP GRO which broke reuseport_select_sock() assumption
   that skb->data is pointing to transport header, from Martin.

3) Two fixes for BPF sockmap: a use-after-free from sleep in psock's backlog
   workqueue, and a missing restore of sk_write_space when psock gets dropped,
   from Jakub and John.

4) Fix unconnected UDP sendmsg hook API which is insufficient as-is since it
   breaks standard applications like DNS if reverse NAT is not performed upon
   receive, from Daniel.

5) Fix an out-of-bounds read in __bpf_skc_lookup which in case of AF_INET6
   fails to verify that the length of the tuple is long enough, from Lorenz.

6) Fix libbpf's libbpf__probe_raw_btf to return an fd instead of 0/1 (for
   {un,}successful probe) as that is expected to be propagated as an fd to
   load_sk_storage_btf() and thus closing the wrong descriptor otherwise,
   from Michal.

7) Fix bpftool's JSON output for the case when a lookup fails, from Krzesimir.

8) Minor misc fixes in docs, samples and selftests, from various others.

Describe existing kernel TLS offload (added back in Linux 4.19) -
the mechanism, the expected behavior and the notable corner cases.

This documentation is mostly targeting hardware vendors who want
to implement offload, to ensure consistency between implementations.

v2:
 - add emphasis around TLS_SW/TLS_HW/TLS_HW_RECORD;
 - remove mentions of ongoing work (Boris);
 - split the flow of data in SW vs. HW cases in TX overview
   (Boris);
 - call out which fields are updated by the device and which
   are filled by the stack (Boris);
 - move error handling into it's own section (Boris);
 - add more words about fallback (Boris);
 - note that checksum validation is required (Alexei);
 - note that drivers shouldn't pay attention to the TLS
   device features.
