From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Gerrit Renker Date: Mon, 09 Apr 2007 09:58:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 0/5]: Sync/Reset Floods; Rate-Limiting for DCCP-Sync Message-Id: <200704091058.35064@strip-the-willow> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: dccp@vger.kernel.org This patch set fixes two bugs and adds rate-limiting for DCCP-Syncs. Patch #1: Uses variables instead of a reference to skb fields; it is needed by patch #2 (no code change here). Patch #2: Fixes the Sync/Reset flood bug discussed earlier on dccp@vger, by adding the special case for sequence-invalid Reset from RFC 4340, 7.5.4. Patch #3: Renames `seq' parameter of dccp_send_sync into `ackno'. Patch #4: Implements rate-limiting for DCCP-Syncs. Patch #5: Adds another exception required by RFC 4340, 7.5.4 - In state REQUEST, receiving a Sync generates a Reset and not a SyncAck.
