[PATCH net-next 0/8] mptcp: MSG_FASTOPEN and TFO listener side support

From: Matthieu Baerts
Date: Fri Nov 25 2022 - 17:30:29 EST


Before this series, only the initiator of a connection was able to combine both
TCP FastOpen and MPTCP when using TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT socket option.

These new patches here add (in theory) the full support of TFO with MPTCP, which
means:

- MSG_FASTOPEN sendmsg flag support (patch 1/8)
- TFO support for the listener side (patches 2-5/8)
- TCP_FASTOPEN socket option (patch 6/8)
- TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY socket option (patch 7/8)

To support TFO for the server side, a few preparation patches are needed
(patches 2 to 5/8). Some of them were inspired by a previous work from Benjamin
Hesmans.

Note that TFO support with MPTCP has been validated with selftests (patch 8/8)
but also with Packetdrill tests running with a modified but still very WIP
version supporting MPTCP. Both the modified tool and the tests are available
online:
