[PATCH 3.12 41/94] tcp: Fix divide by zero when pushing during tcp-repair

[Jiri Slaby]

From: Christoph Paasch <christoph.paasch@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 5924f17a8a30c2ae18d034a86ee7581b34accef6 ]

When in repair-mode and TCP_RECV_QUEUE is set, we end up calling
tcp_push with mss_now being 0. If data is in the send-queue and
tcp_set_skb_tso_segs gets called, we crash because it will divide by
mss_now:

This can easily be reproduced with the following packetdrill-script (the
"magic" with netem, sk_pacing and limit_output_bytes is done to prevent
the kernel from pushing all segments, because hitting the limit without
doing this is not so easy with packetdrill):

0   socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
+0  setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0

+0  bind(3, ..., ...) = 0
+0  listen(3, 1) = 0

+0  < S 0:0(0) win 32792 <mss 1460>
+0  > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460>
+0.1  < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 65000

+0  accept(3, ..., ...) = 4

// This forces that not all segments of the snd-queue will be pushed
+0 `tc qdisc add dev tun0 root netem delay 10ms`
+0 `sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes=2`
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, 47, [2], 4) = 0

+0 write(4,...,10000) = 10000
+0 write(4,...,10000) = 10000

// Set tcp-repair stuff, particularly TCP_RECV_QUEUE
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, 19, [1], 4) = 0
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, 20, [1], 4) = 0

// This now will make the write push the remaining segments
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, 47, [20000], 4) = 0
+0 `sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes=130000`

// Now we will crash
+0 write(4,...,1000) = 1000

This happens since ec3423257508 (tcp: fix retransmission in repair
mode). Prior to that, the call to tcp_push was prevented by a check for
tp->repair.

The patch fixes it, by adding the new goto-label out_nopush. When exiting
tcp_sendmsg and a push is not required, which is the case for tp->repair,
we go to this label.

When repairing and calling send() with TCP_RECV_QUEUE, the data is
actually put in the receive-queue. So, no push is required because no
data has been added to the send-queue.
