Subject: [PATCH] tcp_cubic: fix divide error when SYN flood
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2014 10:40:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5355D68F.2060107@gmail.com> (raw)


From: Liu Yu <allanyuliu@tencent.com>

commit b9f47a3aaeab (tcp_cubic: limit delayed_ack ratio to prevent
divide error) try to prevent divide error, but it still has a little
chance that delayed_ack can reach zero. In case machine sufferring
continuous SYN flood, the argument cnt could be big, and so that
ratio+cnt could get overflow and may happen to be zero. If so,
min(ratio, ACK_RATIO_LIMIT) will calculate to be zero.

The crash log may like this:
..
 <6>[27536.083145] possible SYN flooding on port 8080. Sending cookies.
 <6>[27596.092124] possible SYN flooding on port 8080. Sending cookies.
 <6>[27656.109832] possible SYN flooding on port 8080. Sending cookies.
 <0>[27676.940730] divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP
 <0>[27676.987890] last sysfs file: /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/proc_name
