From 0b58a811461ccf3cf848aba4cc192538fd3b0516 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2007 17:01:17 -0700 Subject: [SCTP]: Clean up stale data during association restart During association restart we may have stale data sitting on the ULP queue waiting for ordering or reassembly. This data may cause severe problems if not cleaned up. In particular stale data pending ordering may cause problems with receive window exhaustion if our peer has decided to restart the association.

If we do not, the association will use the wrong values and may terminate prematurely. This was found with a scenario where the peer restarted the association when lksctp was in the last HB timeout for its association. The restart happened, but the error counts have not been reset and when the timeout occurred, a newly restarted association was terminated due to excessive retransmits.
