Subject: [ 49/61] sctp: refactor sctp_outq_teardown to insure proper re-initalization
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2013 12:35:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130212203424.564075474@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130212203417.890993903@linuxfoundation.org>

3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 2f94aabd9f6c925d77aecb3ff020f1cc12ed8f86 ]

Jamie Parsons reported a problem recently, in which the re-initalization of an
association (The duplicate init case), resulted in a loss of receive window
space.  He tracked down the root cause to sctp_outq_teardown, which discarded
all the data on an outq during a re-initalization of the corresponding
association, but never reset the outq->outstanding_data field to zero.  I wrote,
and he tested this fix, which does a proper full re-initalization of the outq,
fixing this problem, and hopefully future proofing us from simmilar issues down
the road.
