Subject: [PATCH net v4 0/3] mptcp: Fix conflicts between MPTCP and sockmap
Date: Wed,  5 Nov 2025 19:36:06 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251105113625.148900-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)

Overall, we encountered a warning [1] that can be triggered by running the
selftest I provided.

sockmap works by replacing sk_data_ready, recvmsg, sendmsg operations and
implementing fast socket-level forwarding logic:
1. Users can obtain file descriptors through userspace socket()/accept()
   interfaces, then call BPF syscall to perform these replacements.
2. Users can also use the bpf_sock_hash_update helper (in sockops programs)
   to replace handlers when TCP connections enter ESTABLISHED state
  (BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB/BPF_SOCK_OPS_ACTIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB)

However, when combined with MPTCP, an issue arises: MPTCP creates subflow
sk's and performs TCP handshakes, so the BPF program obtains subflow sk's
and may incorrectly replace their sk_prot. We need to reject such
operations. In patch 1, we set psock_update_sk_prot to NULL in the
subflow's custom sk_prot.

Additionally, if the server's listening socket has MPTCP enabled and the
client's TCP also uses MPTCP, we should allow the combination of subflow
and sockmap. This is because the latest Golang programs have enabled MPTCP
for listening sockets by default [2]. For programs already using sockmap,
upgrading Golang should not cause sockmap functionality to fail.

Patch 2 prevents the WARNING from occurring.

v3 -> v4: Addressed questions from Matthieu and Paolo, explained sockmap's
          operational mechanism, and finalized the changes
v2 -> v3: Adopted Jakub Sitnicki's suggestions - atomic retrieval of
          sk_family is required
v1 -> v2: Had initial discussion with Matthieu on sockmap and MPTCP
          technical details
