Lu Wei 13ecaa6832 tcp: prohibit TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS if data was already sent
[ Upstream commit 0c175da7b0378445f5ef53904247cfbfb87e0b78 ]

If setsockopt with option name of TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS and opt_code
of TCPOPT_SACK_PERM is called to enable sack after data is sent
and dupacks are received , it will trigger a warning in function
tcp_verify_left_out() as follows:

============================================
WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 0 at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:2132
tcp_timeout_mark_lost+0x154/0x160
tcp_enter_loss+0x2b/0x290
tcp_retransmit_timer+0x50b/0x640
tcp_write_timer_handler+0x1c8/0x340
tcp_write_timer+0xe5/0x140
call_timer_fn+0x3a/0x1b0
__run_timers.part.0+0x1bf/0x2d0
run_timer_softirq+0x43/0xb0
__do_softirq+0xfd/0x373
__irq_exit_rcu+0xf6/0x140

The warning is caused in the following steps:
1. a socket named socketA is created
2. socketA enters repair mode without build a connection
3. socketA calls connect() and its state is changed to TCP_ESTABLISHED
   directly
4. socketA leaves repair mode
5. socketA calls sendmsg() to send data, packets_out and sack_outs(dup
   ack receives) increase
6. socketA enters repair mode again
7. socketA calls setsockopt with TCPOPT_SACK_PERM to enable sack
8. retransmit timer expires, it calls tcp_timeout_mark_lost(), lost_out
   increases
9. sack_outs + lost_out > packets_out triggers since lost_out and
   sack_outs increase repeatly

In function tcp_timeout_mark_lost(), tp->sacked_out will be cleared if
Step7 not happen and the warning will not be triggered. As suggested by
Denis and Eric, TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS should be prohibited if data was
already sent.

socket-tcp tests in CRIU has been tested as follows:
$ sudo ./test/zdtm.py run -t zdtm/static/socket-tcp*  --keep-going \
       --ignore-taint

socket-tcp* represent all socket-tcp tests in test/zdtm/static/.

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.
