[patch 14/23] [PATCH] [NETFILTER] ip_conntrack TCP: Accept SYN+PUSH like SYN

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

Some devices (e.g. Qlogic iSCSI HBA hardware like QLA4010 up to firmware
3.0.0.4) initiates TCP with SYN and PUSH flags set.

The Linux TCP/IP stack deals fine with that, but the connection tracking
code doesn't.

This patch alters TCP connection tracking to accept SYN+PUSH as a valid
flag combination.
