[PATCH net 07/11] mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: skip inactive subflows
From: Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)
Date: Tue May 05 2026 - 11:05:41 EST
When looking at the maximum RTO amongst the subflows, inactive subflows
were taken into account: that includes stale ones, and the initial one
if it has been already been closed.
Unusable subflows are now simply skipped. Stale ones are used as an
alternative: if there are only stale ones, to take their maximum RTO and
avoid to eventually fallback to net.mptcp.add_addr_timeout, which is set
to 2 minutes by default.
Fixes: 30549eebc4d8 ("mptcp: make ADD_ADDR retransmission timeout adaptive")
