Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/12] rxrpc: Fixes and improvements


Hi David,

Is it too late for this to go to Linus in this merge window?

---

Here's a set of patches that fix and improve some stuff in the AF_RXRPC
protocol:

The patches are:

 (1) Unlock mutex returned by rxrpc_accept_call().

 (2) Don't set connection upgrade by default.

 (3) Differentiate the call->user_mutex used by the kernel from that used
     by userspace calling sendmsg() to avoid lockdep warnings.

 (4) Delay terminal ACK transmission to a work queue so that it can be
     replaced by the next call if there is one.

 (5) Split the call parameters from the connection parameters so that more
     call-specific parameters can be passed through.

 (6) Fix the call timeouts to work the same as for other RxRPC/AFS
     implementations.

 (7) Don't transmit DELAY ACKs immediately, but instead delay them slightly
     so that can be discarded or can represent more packets.

 (8) Use RTT to calculate certain protocol timeouts.

 (9) Add a timeout to detect lost ACK/DATA packets.

(10) Add a keepalive function so that we ping the peer if we haven't
     transmitted for a short while, thereby keeping intervening firewall
     routes open.

(11) Make service endpoints expire like they're supposed to so that the UDP
     port can be reused.

(12) Fix connection expiry timers to make cleanup happen in a more timely
     fashion.
