    tcp: implement RFC 5961 3.2 · 282f23c6
    Eric Dumazet 提交于
    Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
    Reset attack using RST bit.
    
    Idea is to validate incoming RST sequence,
    to match RCV.NXT value, instead of previouly accepted
    window : (RCV.NXT <= SEG.SEQ < RCV.NXT+RCV.WND)
    
    If sequence is in window but not an exact match, send
    a "challenge ACK", so that the other part can resend an
    RST with the appropriate sequence.
    
    Add a new sysctl, tcp_challenge_ack_limit, to limit
    number of challenge ACK sent per second.
    
    Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent.
    (netstat -s | grep TCPChallengeACK)
