[PATCH stable 4.19 1/4] tcp: address problems caused by EDT misshaps

From: Qiumiao Zhang
Date: Sun Sep 26 2021 - 03:19:37 EST


From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9efdda4e3abed13f0903b7b6e4d4c2102019440a upstream

When a qdisc setup including pacing FQ is dismantled and recreated,
some TCP packets are sent earlier than instructed by TCP stack.

TCP can be fooled when ACK comes back, because the following
operation can return a negative value.

tcp_time_stamp(tp) - tp->rx_opt.rcv_tsecr;

Some paths in TCP stack were not dealing properly with this,
this patch addresses four of them.

Fixes: ab408b6dc744 ("tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest departure time model")
