[PATCH v5 5/5] net/tcp: Don't store TCP-AO maclen on reqsk

Dmitry Safonov
2023-12-04T19:14:46Z

This extra check doesn't work for a handshake when SYN segment has
(current_key.maclen != rnext_key.maclen). It could be amended to
preserve rnext_key.maclen instead of current_key.maclen, but that
requires a lookup on listen socket.

Originally, this extra maclen check was introduced just because it was
cheap. Drop it and convert tcp_request_sock::maclen into boolean
tcp_request_sock::used_tcp_ao.
