mptcp: fix missing wakeups in edge scenarios

2026-07-04T11:38:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9d8d28738f24b75616d6ca7a27cb4aed88520343 ] The mptcp_recvmsg() can fill MPTCP socket receive queue via mptcp_move_skbs(), but currently does not try to wakeup any listener, because the same process is going to check the receive queue soon. When multiple threads are reading from the same fd, the above can cause stall. Add the missing wakeup.

mptcp: do not drop partial packets

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 50c2d91c5dfa0e465826ec1f8dbad9cdc254bd85 ] When a packet arrives with map_seq < ack_seq < end_seq, the beginning of the packet has already been acknowledged but the end contains new data. Currently the entire packet is dropped as "old data," forcing the sender to retransmit. Instead, skip the already-acked bytes by adjusting the skb offset and enqueue only the new portion. Update bytes_received and ack_seq to reflect the new data consumed. A previous attempt at this fix has been sent by Paolo Abeni [1], but had issues [2]: it also added a zero-window check and changed rcv_wnd_sent initialization, which caused test regressions. This version addresses only the partial packet handling without modifying receive window accounting. Fixes: ab174ad8ef76 ("mptcp: move ooo skbs into msk out of order queue.")

mptcp: pm: ignore unknown endpoint flags

2026-01-19T12:12:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0ace3297a7301911e52d8195cb1006414897c859 ] Before this patch, the kernel was saving any flags set by the userspace, even unknown ones. This doesn't cause critical issues because the kernel is only looking at specific ones. But on the other hand, endpoints dumps could tell the userspace some recent flags seem to be supported on older kernel versions. Instead, ignore all unknown flags when parsing them. By doing that, the userspace can continue to set unsupported flags, but it has a way to verify what is supported by the kernel. Note that it sounds better to continue accepting unsupported flags not to change the behaviour, but also that eases things on the userspace side by adding "optional" endpoint types only supported by newer kernel versions without having to deal with the different kernel versions. A note for the backports: there will be conflicts in mptcp.h on older versions not having the mentioned flags, the new line should still be added last, and the '5' needs to be adapted to have the same value as the last entry.

mptcp: Fix proto fallback detection with BPF

2025-12-06T21:08:24+00:00

commit c77b3b79a92e3345aa1ee296180d1af4e7031f8f upstream. The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack processing with sockmap's custom read/write interfaces. ''' tcp_rcv_state_process() syn_recv_sock()/subflow_syn_recv_sock() tcp_init_transfer(BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB) bpf_skops_established <== sockops bpf_sock_map_update(sk) <== call bpf helper tcp_bpf_update_proto() <== update sk_prot ''' When the server has MPTCP enabled but the client sends a TCP SYN without MPTCP, subflow_syn_recv_sock() performs a fallback on the subflow, replacing the subflow sk's sk_prot with the native sk_prot. ''' subflow_syn_recv_sock() subflow_ulp_fallback() subflow_drop_ctx() mptcp_subflow_ops_undo_override() ''' Then, this subflow can be normally used by sockmap, which replaces the native sk_prot with sockmap's custom sk_prot. The issue occurs when the user executes accept::mptcp_stream_accept::mptcp_fallback_tcp_ops(). Here, it uses sk->sk_prot to compare with the native sk_prot, but this is incorrect when sockmap is used, as we may incorrectly set sk->sk_socket->ops. This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead. Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring: result from ./scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 337 at net/mptcp/protocol.c:68 mptcp_stream_accept \ (net/mptcp/protocol.c:4005) Modules linked in: ...
