request sockets are lockless, __tcp_oow_rate_limited() could be called
on the same object from different cpus. This is harmless.

Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations to avoid a KCSAN report.

<title>tcp: fix mishandling when the sack compression is deferred.</title>

<id>30c6f0bf9579debce27e45fac34fdc97e46acacc</id>
<content type='text'>
In this patch, we mainly try to handle sending a compressed ack
correctly if it's deferred.

Here are more details in the old logic:
When sack compression is triggered in the tcp_compressed_ack_kick(),
if the sock is owned by user, it will set TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED
and then defer to the release cb phrase. Later once user releases
the sock, tcp_delack_timer_handler() should send a ack as expected,
which, however, cannot happen due to lack of ICSK_ACK_TIMER flag.
Therefore, the receiver would not sent an ack until the sender's
retransmission timeout. It definitely increases unnecessary latency.

<title>tcp: Refine SYN handling for PAWS.</title>

<content type='text'>
Our Network Load Balancer (NLB) [0] has multiple nodes with different
IP addresses, and each node forwards TCP flows from clients to backend
targets.  NLB has an option to preserve the client's source IP address
and port when routing packets to backend targets. [1]

When a client connects to two different NLB nodes, they may select the
same backend target.  Then, if the client has used the same source IP
and port, the two flows at the backend side will have the same 4-tuple.

While testing around such cases, I saw these sequences on the backend
target.

IP 10.0.0.215.60000 &gt; 10.0.3.249.10000: Flags [S], seq 2819965599, win 62727, options [mss 8365,sackOK,TS val 1029816180 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
IP 10.0.3.249.10000 &gt; 10.0.0.215.60000: Flags [S.], seq 3040695044, ack 2819965600, win 62643, options [mss 8961,sackOK,TS val 1224784076 ecr 1029816180,nop,wscale 7], length 0
IP 10.0.0.215.60000 &gt; 10.0.3.249.10000: Flags [.], ack 1, win 491, options [nop,nop,TS val 1029816181 ecr 1224784076], length 0
IP 10.0.0.215.60000 &gt; 10.0.3.249.10000: Flags [S], seq 2681819307, win 62727, options [mss 8365,sackOK,TS val 572088282 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
IP 10.0.3.249.10000 &gt; 10.0.0.215.60000: Flags [.], ack 1, win 490, options [nop,nop,TS val 1224794914 ecr 1029816181,nop,nop,sack 1 {4156821004:4156821005}], length 0

It seems to be working correctly, but the last ACK was generated by
tcp_send_dupack() and PAWSEstab was increased.  This is because the
second connection has a smaller timestamp than the first one.

In this case, we should send a dup ACK in tcp_send_challenge_ack()
to increase the correct counter and rate-limit it properly.

Let's check the SYN flag after the PAWS tests to avoid adding unnecessary
overhead for most packets.

<content type='text'>
We can change tcp_sk() to propagate its argument const qualifier,
thanks to container_of_const().

We have two places where a const sock pointer has to be upgraded
to a write one. We have been using const qualifier for lockless
listeners to clearly identify points where writes could happen.

Add tcp_sk_rw() helper to better document these.

tcp_inbound_md5_hash(), __tcp_grow_window(), tcp_reset_check()
and tcp_rack_reo_wnd() get an additional const qualififer
for their @tp local variables.

smc_check_reset_syn_req() also needs a similar change.
