16 years ago[DCCP]: Support inserting options during the 3-way handshake

[DCCP]: Support inserting options during the 3-way handshake

This provides a separate routine to insert options during the initial handshake.
The main purpose is to conduct feature negotiation, for the moment the only user
is the timestamp echo needed for the (CCID3) handshake RTT sample.

Padding of options has been put into a small separate routine, to be shared among
the two functions. This could also be used as a generic routine to finish inserting
options.

Also removed an `XXX' comment since its content was obvious.

16 years ago[DCCP]: Handle timestamps on Request/Response exchange separately
Gerrit Renker [Thu, 13 Dec 2007 14:37:19 +0000 (12:37 -0200)]
[DCCP]: Handle timestamps on Request/Response exchange separately

In DCCP, timestamps can occur on packets anytime, CCID3 uses a timestamp(/echo) on the Request/Response
exchange. This patch addresses the following situation:
* timestamps are recorded on the listening socket;
* Responses are sent from dccp_request_sockets;
* suppose two connections reach the listening socket with very small time in between:
* the first timestamp value gets overwritten by the second connection request.

This is not really good, so this patch separates timestamps into
 * those which are received by the server during the initial handshake (on dccp_request_sock);
 * those which are received by the client or the client after connection establishment.

As before, a timestamp of 0 is regarded as indicating that no (meaningful) timestamp has been
received (in addition, a warning message is printed if hosts send 0-valued timestamps).

The timestamp-echoing now works as follows:
 * when a timestamp is present on the initial Request, it is placed into dreq, due to the
   call to dccp_parse_options in dccp_v{4,6}_conn_request;
 * when a timestamp is present on the Ack leading from RESPOND => OPEN, it is copied over
   from the request_sock into the child cocket in dccp_create_openreq_child;
 * timestamps received on an (established) dccp_sock are treated as before.

Since Elapsed Time is measured in hundredths of milliseconds (13.2), the new dccp_timestamp()
function is used, as it is expected that the time between receiving the timestamp and
sending the timestamp echo will be very small against the wrap-around time. As a byproduct,
this allows smaller timestamping-time fields.

Furthermore, inserting the Timestamp Echo option has been taken out of the block starting with
'!dccp_packet_without_ack()', since Timestamp Echo can be carried on any packet (5.8 and 13.3).

16 years ago[DCCP]: Add (missing) option parsing to request_sock processing

[DCCP]: Add (missing) option parsing to request_sock processing

This adds option-parsing code to processing of Acks in the listening state
on request_socks on the server, serving two purposes
 (i)  resolves a FIXME (removed);
 (ii) paves the way for feature-negotiation during connection-setup.

There is an intended subtlety here with regard to dccp_check_req:

 Parsing options happens only after testing whether the received packet is
 a retransmitted Request.  Otherwise, if the Request contained (a possibly
 large number of) feature-negotiation options, recomputing state would have to
 happen each time a retransmitted Request arrives, which opens the door to an
 easy DoS attack.  Since in a genuine retransmission the options should not be
 different from the original, reusing the already computed state seems better.

 The other point is - if there are timestamp options on the Request, they will
 not be answered; which means that in the presence of retransmission (likely
 due to loss and/or other problems), the use of Request/Response RTT sampling
 is suspended, so that startup problems here do not propagate.

1) Close the write-end in addition to the read-end when a fin-like segment
  (Close or CloseReq) is received by DCCP. This accounts for the fact that DCCP,
  in contrast to TCP, does not have a half-close. RFC 4340 says in this respect
  that when a fin-like segment has been sent there is no guarantee at all that
  any   further data will be processed.
  Thus this patch performs SHUT_WR in addition to the SHUT_RD when a fin-like
  segment is encountered.

2) Minor change: I noted that code appears twice in different places and think it
   makes sense to put this into a self-contained function (dccp_enqueue()).

Once created, an IP tunnel can't be bound to another device.
(reported as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=419671)

To reproduce:

# create a tunnel:
ip tunnel add tunneltest0 mode ipip remote 10.0.0.1 dev eth0
# try to change the bounding device from eth0 to eth1:

Notice the bound device has not changed from eth0 to eth1.

This patch fixes it. When changing the binding, it also recalculates the

Details:

 * allocation of dccp_rx_hist entries local to packet_history.c,
   as a service exported by the dccp_tfrc_lib module.
 * interface to automatically track highest-received seqno;
 * receiver-based RTT estimation (needed for instance by RFC 3448, 6.3.1);
