While reading sysctl_tcp_thin_linear_timeouts, it can be changed

<title>tcp: make TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for zero window probes</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 344db93ae3ee69fc137bd6ed89a8ff1bf5b0db08 upstream.

The TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is checked by the 0-window probe timer. As the
timer has backoff with a max interval of about two minutes, the
actual timeout for TCP_USER_TIMEOUT can be off by up to two minutes.

In this patch the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is made more accurate by taking it
into account when computing the timer value for the 0-window probes.

This patch is similar to and builds on top of the one that made
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for RTOs in commit b701a99e431d ("tcp: Add
tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() helper to improve accuracy").

commit 9d9b1ee0b2d1c9e02b2338c4a4b0a062d2d3edac upstream.

The TCP session does not terminate with TCP_USER_TIMEOUT when data
remain untransmitted due to zero window.

The number of unanswered zero-window probes (tcp_probes_out) is
reset to zero with incoming acks irrespective of the window size,
as described in tcp_probe_timer():

    RFC 1122 4.2.2.17 requires the sender to stay open indefinitely
    as long as the receiver continues to respond probes. We support
    this by default and reset icsk_probes_out with incoming ACKs.

This counter, however, is the wrong one to be used in calculating the
duration that the window remains closed and data remain untransmitted.
Thanks to Jonathan Maxwell &lt;jmaxwell37@gmail.com&gt; for diagnosing the
actual issue.

In this patch a new timestamp is introduced for the socket in order to
track the elapsed time for the zero-window probes that have not been
answered with any non-zero window ack.

<title>tcp: add rcu protection around tp-&gt;fastopen_rsk</title>

Both tcp_v4_err() and tcp_v6_err() do the following operations
while they do not own the socket lock :

	fastopen = tp-&gt;fastopen_rsk;
 	snd_una = fastopen ? tcp_rsk(fastopen)-&gt;snt_isn : tp-&gt;snd_una;

The problem is that without appropriate barrier, the compiler
might reload tp-&gt;fastopen_rsk and trigger a NULL deref.

request sockets are protected by RCU, we can simply add
the missing annotations and barriers to solve the issue.

<title>tcp: adjust rto_base in retransmits_timed_out()</title>

<id>3256a2d6ab1f71f9a1bd2d7f6f18eb8108c48d17</id>
<content type='text'>
The cited commit exposed an old retransmits_timed_out() bug
which assumed it could call tcp_model_timeout() with
TCP_RTO_MIN as rto_base for all states.

But flows in SYN_SENT or SYN_RECV state uses a different
RTO base (1 sec instead of 200 ms, unless BPF choses
another value)

This caused a reduction of SYN retransmits from 6 to 4 with
the default /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syn_retries value.
