From de213e5eedecdfb1b1eea7e6be28bc64cac5c078 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 22:35:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: tcp_synack_options() fix Commit 33ad798c924b4a (tcp: options clean up) introduced a problem if MD5+SACK+timestamps were used in initial SYN message. Some stacks (old linux for example) try to negotiate MD5+SACK+TSTAMP sessions, but since 40 bytes of tcp options space are not enough to store all the bits needed, we chose to disable timestamps in this case. We send a SYN-ACK _without_ timestamp option, but socket has timestamps enabled and all further outgoing messages contain a TS block, all with the initial timestamp of the remote peer. Fix is to really disable timestamps option for the whole session. Reported-by: Bijay Singh Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
