tcp: fix tcp_trim_head() to adjust segment count with skb MSS

This commit fixes tcp_trim_head() to recalculate the number of segments in the skb with the skb’s existing MSS, so trimming the head causes the skb segment count to be monotonically non-increasing - it should stay the same or go down, but not increase.

Previously tcp_trim_head() used the current MSS of the connection. But if there was a decrease in MSS between original transmission and ACK (e.g. due to PMTUD), this could cause tcp_trim_head() to counter-intuitively increase the segment count when trimming bytes off the head of an skb. This violated assumptions in tcp_tso_acked() that tcp_trim_head() only decreases the packet count, so that packets_acked in tcp_tso_acked() could underflow, leading tcp_clean_rtx_queue() to pass u32 pkts_acked values as large as 0xffffffff to ca_ops->pkts_acked().

As an aside, if tcp_trim_head() had really wanted the skb to reflect the current MSS, it should have called tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() unconditionally, since a decrease in MSS would mean that a single-packet skb should now be sliced into multiple segments.

 }

会出现tp->packets_out不正确, 导致sk_write_queue为空时却掉tcp_rearm_rto(),判断tp->packets_out不为0,启动重传定时器,然后重传时取出的是list_head的地址,不是skb的地址,导致后面异常。

debug, mark

« 如果sk_write_queue异常 gro收包 »
