Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 00/14] tcp: preserve receive-window accounting across ratio drift
Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:13:34 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260314201348.1786972-1-atwellwea@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Wesley Atwell <atwellwea@gmail.com>
This series keeps sender-visible TCP receive-window accounting tied to the
scaling basis that was in force when the window was advertised, even if
later receive-side truesize inflation lowers scaling_ratio or the live
receive window retracts below the largest right edge already exposed to the
sender.
After the receive-window retraction changes, the receive path needs to keep
track of two related pieces of sender-visible state:
1. the live advertised receive window
2. the maximum advertised right edge and the basis it was exposed with
This repost snapshots both, uses them to repair receive-buffer backing when
ratio drift would otherwise strand sender-visible space, extends
TCP_REPAIR_WINDOW so repair/restore can round-trip the new state, and adds
truesize-drift coverage through TUN packetdrill tests and netdevsim-based
selftests.
v2:
- repost to net-next and use the [PATCH net-next v2] prefix
- rebase the receive-window accounting changes on top of the retraction
model
- split the series more finely
- snapshot both the live rwnd basis and the max advertised-window basis
- extend TCP_REPAIR_WINDOW to preserve legacy, v1, and current layouts
- add TUN RX truesize injection and packetdrill coverage for ratio drift
- split the generic netdevsim PSP extension cleanup into its own final
patch after the peer RX truesize support
- add the requested ABI/runtime comments at the non-obvious review points
Testing:
- full runtime selftest coverage for netdevsim, tcp_ao, mptcp, and
packetdrill; all runtime suites completed successfully
- tcp_ao completed 24/24 top-level tests, covering 803 passing checks,
6 expected failures, 36 skips, and 0 unexpected failures
- mptcp completed 588 passing checks in aggregate, with 28 skips and
0 unexpected failures
- packetdrill completed 219/219 runtime cases with 0 failures,
including the new tests
- netdevsim completed 18/18 top-level runtime tests with 0 failures,
including the peer RX truesize and related netdevsim coverage used by
this series
