Francesco Ruggeri 4f25434bcc netfilter: conntrack: connection timeout after re-register
If the first packet conntrack sees after a re-register is an outgoing
keepalive packet with no data (SEG.SEQ = SND.NXT-1), td_end is set to
SND.NXT-1.
When the peer correctly acknowledges SND.NXT, tcp_in_window fails
check III (Upper bound for valid (s)ack: sack <= receiver.td_end) and
returns false, which cascades into nf_conntrack_in setting
skb->_nfct = 0 and in later conntrack iptables rules not matching.
In cases where iptables are dropping packets that do not match
conntrack rules this can result in idle tcp connections to time out.

v2: adjust td_end when getting the reply rather than when sending out
    the keepalive packet.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
