Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] tcp_bic: fix divide by zero on max_increment == 0
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 18:09:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930100937.206377-2-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930100937.206377-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>

max_increment is how many packets cwnd can grow per RTT, so 0 makes
no sense, and bictcp_update() divides by it.

Reject values below 1 when the parameter is written.

Fixes: 83803034f423 ("[TCP]: Add TCP BIC congestion control module.")
Reported-by: VEGA <vega@nebusec.ai>

Target net-next since it is not a big problem.
