Subject: Bug report connect to VM with Vagrant

Hi Eric,

I have an issue that bisection pointed at this patch:
commit 0a8de364ff7a14558e9676f424283148110384d6
tcp: no longer abort SYN_SENT when receiving some ICMP

Full commit message at [1].
    
The issue appears while using Vagrant to manage nested VMs.
The steps are:
* create vagrant file
* vagrant up
* vagrant halt (VM is created but shut down)
* vagrant up - fail

Turn on a VM with ‘Vagrant up’ fails when the VM is in halt state. When the VM hasn't been created yet, 'Vagrant up' passes.
The failure occurs in the Net-SSH connection to the VM step.
Vagrant error is ‘Guest communication could not be established! This is usually because SSH is not running, the authentication information was changed, or some other networking issue.'
We use a new version of vagrant-libvirt.
Turn on the VM with virsh instead of vagrant works.

Stdout[2] bellow.

Any idea what may cause the error with your patch?

Thanks,
Shachar Kagan

    tcp: no longer abort SYN_SENT when receiving some ICMP
    
    Currently, non fatal ICMP messages received on behalf
    of SYN_SENT sockets do call tcp_ld_RTO_revert()
    to implement RFC 6069, but immediately call tcp_done(),
    thus aborting the connect() attempt.
    
    This violates RFC 1122 following requirement:
    
    4.2.3.9  ICMP Messages
    ...
              o    Destination Unreachable -- codes 0, 1, 5
    
                     Since these Unreachable messages indicate soft error
                     conditions, TCP MUST NOT abort the connection, and it
                     SHOULD make the information available to the
                     application.
    
    This patch makes sure non 'fatal' ICMP[v6] messages do not
    abort the connection attempt.
    
    It enables RFC 6069 for SYN_SENT sockets as a result.
