The current behavior is to accept any strings as inputs, this results in
an inconsistent result where an unexisting scheduler can be set:
# sysctl -w net.mptcp.scheduler=notdefault
net.mptcp.scheduler = notdefault
This patch changes this behavior by checking for existing scheduler
before accepting the input.

The MPTCP protocol allows sockets with no alive subflows to stay in ESTABLISHED status for and user-defined timeout, to allow for later subflows creation. Currently such timeout is constant - TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN. Let the user-space configure them via a newly added sysctl, to better cope with busy servers and simplify (make them faster) the relevant pktdrill tests. Note that the new know does not apply to orphaned MPTCP socket waiting for the data_fin handshake completion: they always wait TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new sentinel with each array moved. Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new move. The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels. Although Joel already has code which does most of this work, experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use. To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels will be done later in future kernel releases. The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels are created" * tag 'sysctl-6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: sysctl: Use ctl_table_size as stopping criteria for list macro sysctl: SIZE_MAX->ARRAY_SIZE in register_net_sysctl vrf: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz netfilter: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz ax.25: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz sysctl: Add size to register_net_sysctl function sysctl: Add size arg to __register_sysctl_init sysctl: Add size to register_sysctl sysctl: Add a size arg to __register_sysctl_table sysctl: Add size argument to init_header sysctl: Add ctl_table_size to ctl_table_header sysctl: Use ctl_table_header in list_for_each_table_entry sysctl: Prefer ctl_table_header in proc_sysctl

Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.
We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.
An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
include/net/ipv6.h
net/ipv6/icmp.c
net/ipv6/route.c
net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

The msk can use backup subflows to transmit in-sequence data only if there are no other active subflow. On active backup scenario, the MPTCP connection can do forward progress only due to MPTCP retransmissions - rtx can pick backup subflows. This patch introduces a new flag flow MPTCP subflows: if the underlying TCP connection made no progresses for long time, and there are other less problematic subflows available, the given subflow become stale. Stale subflows are not considered active: if all non backup subflows become stale, the MPTCP scheduler can pick backup subflows for plain transmissions. Stale subflows can return in active state, as soon as any reply from the peer is observed. Active backup scenarios can now leverage the available b/w with no restrinction.
