This series improves MPTCP handling of multiple concurrent
xmit streams.
The to-be-transmitted data is enqueued to a subflow only when
the send window is open, keeping the subflows xmit queue shorter
and allowing for faster switch-over.
The above requires a more accurate msk socket state tracking
and some additional infrastructure to allow pushing the data
pending in the msk xmit queue as soon as the MPTCP's send window
opens (patches 6-10).
As a side effect, the MPTCP socket could enqueue data to subflows
after close() time - to completely spooling the data sitting in the
msk xmit queue. Dealing with the requires some infrastructure and
core TCP changes (patches 1-5)
Finally, patches 11-12 introduce a more accurate tracking of the other
end's receive window.
Overall this refactor the MPTCP xmit path, without introducing
new features - the new code is covered by the existing self-tests.
Florian Westphal (2):
mptcp: rework poll+nospace handling
mptcp: keep track of advertised windows right edge
Paolo Abeni (11):
tcp: factor out tcp_build_frag()
mptcp: use tcp_build_frag()
tcp: factor out __tcp_close() helper
mptcp: introduce mptcp_schedule_work
mptcp: reduce the arguments of mptcp_sendmsg_frag
mptcp: add accounting for pending data
mptcp: introduce MPTCP snd_nxt
mptcp: refactor shutdown and close
mptcp: move page frag allocation in mptcp_sendmsg()
mptcp: try to push pending data on snd una updates
mptcp: send explicit ack on delayed ack_seq incr
