This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since
* Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4,
* Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1);
* even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it:
- Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2),
- if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts
(since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window),
- cwnd is not a user-configurable value.
The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is
planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe.
With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation:
* Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID;
* if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to
the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack
Ratio 2 for both endpoints";
* what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the
dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

This patch starts the new implementation of feature negotiation:
1. Although it is theoretically possible to perform feature negotiation at any
time (and RFC 4340 supports this), in practice this is prohibitively complex,
as it requires to put traffic on hold for each new negotiation.
2. As a byproduct of restricting feature negotiation to connection setup, the
feature-negotiation retransmit timer is no longer required. This part is now
mapped onto the protocol-level retransmission.
Details indicating why timers are no longer needed can be found on
http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\
implementation_notes.html
This patch disables anytime negotiation, subsequent patches work out full
feature negotiation support for connection setup.

This updates the use of the `out_invalid_option' label, which produces a

This updates the option-parsing code with regard to RFC 4340, 5.8:
"[..] options with nonsensical lengths (length byte less than two or more
than the remaining space in the options portion of the header) MUST be
ignored, and any option space following an option with nonsensical length
MUST likewise be ignored."
Hence in the following cases erratic options will be ignored:
1. The type byte of a multi-byte option is the last byte of the header
options (i.e. effective option length of 1).
2. The value of the length byte is less than the minimum 2. This has been
changed from previously 3: although no multi-byte option with a length
less than 3 yet exists (cf. table 3 in 5.8), a length of 2 is valid.
(The switch-statement in dccp_parse has further per-option length checks.)
3. The option length exceeds the length of the remaining option space.

RFC 4340, 7.7 specifies up to 6 bytes for the NDP Count option, whereas the code

This fixes an oversight from an earlier patch, ensuring that Ack Vectors
are not processed on request sockets.
The issue is that Ack Vectors must not be parsed on request sockets, since
the Ack Vector feature depends on the selection of the (TX) CCID. During the
initial handshake the CCIDs are undefined, and so RFC 4340, 10.3 applies:
"Using CCID-specific options and feature options during a negotiation
for the corresponding CCID feature is NOT RECOMMENDED [...]"
And it is not even possible: when the server receives the Request from the
client, the CCID and Ack vector features are undefined; when the Ack finalising
the 3-way hanshake arrives, the request socket has not been cloned yet into a
full socket. (This order is necessary, since otherwise the newly created socket
would have to be destroyed whenever an option error occurred - a malicious
hacker could simply send garbage options and exploit this.)

This provides a separate routine to insert options during the initial handshake.
The main purpose is to conduct feature negotiation, for the moment the only user
is the timestamp echo needed for the (CCID3) handshake RTT sample.
Padding of options has been put into a small separate routine, to be shared among
the two functions. This could also be used as a generic routine to finish inserting
options.
Also removed an `XXX' comment since its content was obvious.

In DCCP, timestamps can occur on packets anytime, CCID3 uses a timestamp(/echo) on the Request/Response
exchange. This patch addresses the following situation:
* timestamps are recorded on the listening socket;
* Responses are sent from dccp_request_sockets;
* suppose two connections reach the listening socket with very small time in between:
* the first timestamp value gets overwritten by the second connection request.
This is not really good, so this patch separates timestamps into
* those which are received by the server during the initial handshake (on dccp_request_sock);
* those which are received by the client or the client after connection establishment.
As before, a timestamp of 0 is regarded as indicating that no (meaningful) timestamp has been
received (in addition, a warning message is printed if hosts send 0-valued timestamps).
The timestamp-echoing now works as follows:
* when a timestamp is present on the initial Request, it is placed into dreq, due to the
call to dccp_parse_options in dccp_v{4,6}_conn_request;
* when a timestamp is present on the Ack leading from RESPOND => OPEN, it is copied over
from the request_sock into the child cocket in dccp_create_openreq_child;
* timestamps received on an (established) dccp_sock are treated as before.
Since Elapsed Time is measured in hundredths of milliseconds (13.2), the new dccp_timestamp()
function is used, as it is expected that the time between receiving the timestamp and
sending the timestamp echo will be very small against the wrap-around time. As a byproduct,
this allows smaller timestamping-time fields.
Furthermore, inserting the Timestamp Echo option has been taken out of the block starting with
'!dccp_packet_without_ack()', since Timestamp Echo can be carried on any packet (5.8 and 13.3).

The option parsing code currently only parses on full sk's. This causes a problem for
options sent during the initial handshake (in particular timestamps and feature-negotiation
options). Therefore, this patch extends the option parsing code with an additional argument
for request_socks: if it is non-NULL, options are parsed on the request socket, otherwise
the normal path (parsing on the sk) is used.
Subsequent patches, which implement feature negotiation during connection setup, make use
of this facility.

I went to alter the default sysctl and it didn't take for new sockets.

I think the default is too low but it is what the DCCP spec specifies.
