The MSS a host puts in its SYN tells the peer how big a segment it may send us. Right now we can shrink it with a PMTU we learned on our own send path, which is the wrong direction entirely. On asymmetric paths this bites - think DSR load balancers, where the request side goes through a smaller-MTU overlay. We learn a small PMTU going out, then advertise a small MSS, and the peer stays capped for the whole connection even though its path back to us is wide. MSS only shows up in the SYN and never grows back. On symmetric paths we lose nothing by dropping it either: the peer runs its own PMTU discovery and usually already knows the real path MTU. So work out the advertised MSS from the configured route or device MTU and ignore the learned PMTU. Our send side is unchanged, still clamped by tcp_current_mss(). Add ip_dst_mtu_configured()/ip6_dst_mtu_configured() and use them from the two default_advmss() paths. Fixes: |
