All of the subflows of a msk will be orphaned in mptcp_close(), which means the subflows are in DEAD state. After then, DATA_FIN will be sent, and the other side will response with a DATA_ACK for this DATA_FIN. However, if the other side still has pending data, the data that received on these subflows will not be passed to the msk, as they are DEAD and subflow_data_ready() will not be called in tcp_data_ready(). Therefore, these data can't be acked, and they will be retransmitted again and again, until timeout. Fix this by setting ssk->sk_socket and ssk->sk_wq to 'NULL', instead of orphaning the subflows in __mptcp_close(), as Paolo suggested.

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.
