Subject: [PATCH export v3 4/4] mptcp: fallback to TCP on MP_FAIL with a single subflow
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 13:46:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260812054653.43799-5-chenguang.zhao@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260812054653.43799-1-chenguang.zhao@linux.dev>

From: Chenguang Zhao <zhaochenguang@kylinos.cn>

Fall back immediately via mptcp_try_fallback() after accepting MP_FAIL
on a single contiguous subflow, as required by RFC8684 §3.7.

Fixes: 1e39e5a32ad7 ("mptcp: infinite mapping sending")
Signed-off-by: Chenguang Zhao <zhaochenguang@kylinos.cn>
