[ Upstream commit a66b10c05ee2d744189e9a2130394b070883d289 ]
Yuchung Cheng and Marek Majkowski independently reported a weird
behavior of TCP_USER_TIMEOUT option when used at connect() time.
When the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is reached, tcp_write_timeout()
believes the flow should live, and the following condition
in tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() programs one jiffie timers :
remaining = icsk->icsk_user_timeout - elapsed;
if (remaining <= 0)
return 1; /* user timeout has passed; fire ASAP */
This silly situation ends when the max syn rtx count is reached.
This patch makes sure we honor both TCP_SYNCNT and TCP_USER_TIMEOUT,
avoiding these spurious SYN packets.
Fixes: b701a99e431d ("tcp: Add tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() helper to
improve accuracy")
