From 972ca7a3bc9a136b15ba698713b056a4900e2634 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Abeni Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2025 19:20:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: do not set a zero size receive buffer The nipa CI is reporting frequent failures in the mptcp_connect self-tests. In the failing scenarios (TCP -> MPTCP) the involved sockets are actually plain TCP ones, as fallback for passive socket at 2whs time cause the MPTCP listener to actually create a TCP socket. The transfer is stuck due to the receiver buffer being zero. With the stronger check in place, tcp_clamp_window() can be invoked while the TCP socket has sk_rmem_alloc == 0, and the receive buffer will be zeroed, too. Check for the critical condition in tcp_prune_queue() and just drop the packet without shrinking the receiver buffer.
