Additional active subflows - i.e. created by the in kernel path
manager - are included into the subflow list before starting the
3whs.

A racing recvmsg() spooling data received on an already established
subflow would unconditionally call tcp_cleanup_rbuf() on all the
current subflows, potentially hitting a divide by zero error on
the newly created ones.

Explicitly check that the subflow is in a suitable state before
invoking tcp_cleanup_rbuf().

The root cause is the current bad handling of racing disconnect.
After the blamed commit below, sk_wait_data() can return (with
error) with the underlying socket disconnected and a zero rcv_mss.

Catch the error and return without performing any additional
operations on the current socket.

<content type='text'>
Bugged peer implementation can send corrupted DSS options, consistently
hitting a few warning in the data path. Use DEBUG_NET assertions, to
avoid the splat on some builds and handle consistently the error, dumping
related MIBs and performing fallback and/or reset according to the
subflow type.

Bugged peer implementation can send corrupted DSS options, consistently
hitting a few warning in the data path. Use DEBUG_NET assertions, to
avoid the splat on some builds and handle consistently the error, dumping
related MIBs and performing fallback and/or reset according to the
subflow type.

<title>mptcp: disable active MPTCP in case of blackhole</title>

<content type='text'>
An MPTCP firewall blackhole can be detected if the following SYN
retransmission after a fallback to "plain" TCP is accepted.

In case of blackhole, a similar technique to the one in place with TFO
is now used: MPTCP can be disabled for a certain period of time, 1h by
default. This time period will grow exponentially when more blackhole
issues get detected right after MPTCP is re-enabled and will reset to
the initial value when the blackhole issue goes away.

The blackhole period can be modified thanks to a new sysctl knob:
blackhole_timeout. Two new MIB counters help understanding what's
happening:

- 'Blackhole', incremented when a blackhole is detected.
- 'MPCapableSYNTXDisabled', incremented when an MPTCP connection
  directly falls back to TCP during the blackhole period.

Because the technique is inspired by the one used by TFO, an important
part of the new code is similar to what can find in tcp_fastopen.c, with
some adaptations to the MPTCP case.

<title>mptcp: avoid duplicated SUB_CLOSED events</title>

The initial subflow might have already been closed, but still in the
connection list. When the worker is instructed to close the subflows
that have been marked as closed, it might then try to close the initial
subflow again.

 A consequence of that is that the SUB_CLOSED event can be seen twice:

  # ip mptcp endpoint
  1.1.1.1 id 1 subflow dev eth0
  2.2.2.2 id 2 subflow dev eth1

  # ip mptcp monitor &amp;
  [         CREATED] remid=0 locid=0 saddr4=1.1.1.1 daddr4=9.9.9.9
  [     ESTABLISHED] remid=0 locid=0 saddr4=1.1.1.1 daddr4=9.9.9.9
  [  SF_ESTABLISHED] remid=0 locid=2 saddr4=2.2.2.2 daddr4=9.9.9.9

  # ip mptcp endpoint delete id 1
  [       SF_CLOSED] remid=0 locid=0 saddr4=1.1.1.1 daddr4=9.9.9.9
  [       SF_CLOSED] remid=0 locid=0 saddr4=1.1.1.1 daddr4=9.9.9.9

The first one is coming from mptcp_pm_nl_rm_subflow_received(), and the
second one from __mptcp_close_subflow().

To avoid doing the post-closed processing twice, the subflow is now
marked as closed the first time.

Note that it is not enough to check if we are dealing with the first
subflow and check its sk_state: the subflow might have been reset or
closed before calling mptcp_close_ssk().

<title>mptcp: pr_debug: add missing \n at the end</title>

<id>cb41b195e634d3f1ecfcd845314e64fd4bb3c7aa</id>
<content type='text'>
pr_debug() have been added in various places in MPTCP code to help
developers to debug some situations. With the dynamic debug feature, it
is easy to enable all or some of them, and asks users to reproduce
issues with extra debug.

Many of these pr_debug() don't end with a new line, while no 'pr_cont()'
are used in MPTCP code. So the goal was not to display multiple debug
messages on one line: they were then not missing the '\n' on purpose.
Not having the new line at the end causes these messages to be printed
with a delay, when something else needs to be printed. This issue is not
visible when many messages need to be printed, but it is annoying and
confusing when only specific messages are expected, e.g.

  # echo "func mptcp_pm_add_addr_echoed +fmp" \
        &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
  # ./mptcp_join.sh "signal address"; \
        echo "$(awk '{print $1}' /proc/uptime) - end"; \
        sleep 5s; \
        echo "$(awk '{print $1}' /proc/uptime) - restart"; \
        ./mptcp_join.sh "signal address"
  013 signal address
      (...)
  10.75 - end
  15.76 - restart
  013 signal address
  [  10.367935] mptcp:mptcp_pm_add_addr_echoed: MPTCP: msk=(...)
      (...)

  =&gt; a delay of 5 seconds: printed with a 10.36 ts, but after 'restart'
     which was printed at the 15.76 ts.

The 'Fixes' tag here below points to the first pr_debug() used without
'\n' in net/mptcp. This patch could be split in many small ones, with
different Fixes tag, but it doesn't seem worth it, because it is easy to
re-generate this patch with this simple 'sed' command:

  git grep -l pr_debug -- net/mptcp |
    xargs sed -i "s/\(pr_debug(\".*[^n]\)\(\"[,)]\)/\1\\\n\2/g"

So in case of conflicts, simply drop the modifications, and launch this
command.

<title>mptcp: sched: check both backup in retrans</title>

The 'mptcp_subflow_context' structure has two items related to the
backup flags:

 - 'backup': the subflow has been marked as backup by the other peer

 - 'request_bkup': the backup flag has been set by the host

Looking only at the 'backup' flag can make sense in some cases, but it
is not the behaviour of the default packet scheduler when selecting
paths.

As explained in the commit b6a66e521a20 ("mptcp: sched: check both
directions for backup"), the packet scheduler should look at both flags,
because that was the behaviour from the beginning: the 'backup' flag was
set by accident instead of the 'request_bkup' one. Now that the latter
has been fixed, get_retrans() needs to be adapted as well.

<title>mptcp: close subflow when receiving TCP+FIN</title>

<id>f09b0ad55a1196f5891663f8888463c0541059cb</id>
<content type='text'>
When a peer decides to close one subflow in the middle of a connection
having multiple subflows, the receiver of the first FIN should accept
that, and close the subflow on its side as well. If not, the subflow
will stay half closed, and would even continue to be used until the end
of the MPTCP connection or a reset from the network.

The issue has not been seen before, probably because the in-kernel
path-manager always sends a RM_ADDR before closing the subflow. Upon the
reception of this RM_ADDR, the other peer will initiate the closure on
its side as well. On the other hand, if the RM_ADDR is lost, or if the
path-manager of the other peer only closes the subflow without sending a
RM_ADDR, the subflow would switch to TCP_CLOSE_WAIT, but that's it,
leaving the subflow half-closed.

So now, when the subflow switches to the TCP_CLOSE_WAIT state, and if
the MPTCP connection has not been closed before with a DATA_FIN, the
kernel owning the subflow schedules its worker to initiate the closure
on its side as well.

This issue can be easily reproduced with packetdrill, as visible in [1],
by creating an additional subflow, injecting a FIN+ACK before sending
the DATA_FIN, and expecting a FIN+ACK in return.
