    mptcp: add new sock flag to deal with join subflows · 90bf4513
    Paolo Abeni 提交于
    MP_JOIN subflows must not land into the accept queue.
    Currently tcp_check_req() calls an mptcp specific helper
    to detect such scenario.
    
    Such helper leverages the subflow context to check for
    MP_JOIN subflows. We need to deal also with MP JOIN
    failures, even when the subflow context is not available
    due allocation failure.
    
    A possible solution would be changing the syn_recv_sock()
    signature to allow returning a more descriptive action/
    error code and deal with that in tcp_check_req().
    
    Since the above need is MPTCP specific, this patch instead
    uses a TCP request socket hole to add a MPTCP specific flag.
    Such flag is used by the MPTCP syn_recv_sock() to tell
    tcp_check_req() how to deal with the request socket.
    
    This change is a no-op for !MPTCP build, and makes the
    MPTCP code simpler. It allows also the next patch to deal
    correctly with MP JOIN failure.
    
    v1 -> v2:
     - be more conservative on drop_req initialization (Mat)
    
    RFC -> v1:
     - move the drop_req bit inside tcp_request_sock (Eric)
