Objet : Re: [PATCH net v2 1/1] tipc: fix broadcast link synchronization problem
Hi Jon,
My overnight testing has shown no problems with the fix. I think it is ok.

Hi Jon,
I have had some help testing this but unfortunately the testing has not been
able to be done yet. It is to be done tonight a long run overnight test to see
if we can reproduce the problem.
Sorry about the delay in getting back to you but the people assisting with the
testing have been on other things.
I will be in touch tomorrow.JT

Hi,
My initial testing has looked good with this patch. I am going to be
performing more in depth testing over the weekend and will be in touch next
week about how it has held up.
Thanks, JT

In commit 2d18ac4ba745 ("tipc: extend broadcast link initialization
criteria") we tried to fix a problem with the initial synchronization
of broadcast link acknowledge values. Unfortunately that solution is
not sufficient to solve the issue.
We have seen it happen that LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE packets with a valid
non-zero unicast acknowledge number may bypass BCAST_PROTOCOL
initialization, NAME_DISTRIBUTOR and other STATE packets with invalid
broadcast acknowledge numbers, leading to premature opening of the
broadcast link. When the bypassed packets finally arrive, they are
inadvertently accepted, and the already correctly initialized
acknowledge number in the broadcast receive link is overwritten by
the invalid (zero) value of the said packets. After this the broadcast
link goes stale.
We now fix this by marking the packets where we know the acknowledge
value is or may be invalid, and then ignoring the acks from those.
To this purpose, we claim an unused bit in the header to indicate that
the value is invalid. We set the bit to 1 in the initial BCAST_PROTOCOL
synchronization packet and all initial ("bulk") NAME_DISTRIBUTOR
packets, plus those LINK_PROTOCOL packets sent out before the broadcast
links are fully synchronized.
This minor protocol update is fully backwards compatible.
