[PATCH net-next 3/3] mptcp: emit tcp reset when a join request fails

Florian Westphal fw at strlen.de
Mon Nov 30 15:36:31 UTC 2020


RFC 8684 says:
 If the token is unknown or the host wants to refuse subflow establishment
 (for example, due to a limit on the number of subflows it will permit),
 the receiver will send back a reset (RST) signal, analogous to an unknown
 port in TCP, containing an MP_TCPRST option (Section 3.6) with an
 "MPTCP specific error" reason code.

mptcp-next doesn't support MP_TCPRST yet, this can be added in another
change.
