commit a469fc393fa1 ("tcp, tap: Don't increase tap-side sequence counter for dropped frames") delayed update of conn->seq_to_tap until the moment the corresponding frame has been successfully pushed out. This has the advantage that we immediately can retransmit a buffer that we fail to trasnmit, rather than waiting for the peer side to discover the loss and initiate fast retransmit. This approach has turned out to cause a problem with spurious sequence number updates during peer-initiated retransmits, and we have realized it may not be the best way to solve te above issue. We now restore the previous method, by updating the said field at the moment a frame is added to the outqueue. To retain the advantage of fast retansmit based on local failure detection, we now scan through the part of the outqueue that had do be dropped, and restore the sequence counter for each affected connection to the most appropriate value.

If we hit this on retransmit frames, it means they actually haven't been retramsitted yet because of the failure, so we need to try again, just like any other frame we failed to retransmit. For example in a single epoll cycle: 1. We queue frames 2, 3 & 4 [queue is (2, 3, 4)] 2. We get a dup ack for frame 1, and start retransmit 3. We queue frames 1 & 2 for retransmit [queue is (2, 3, 4, 1, 2)], seq_to_tap is 3 4. We flush the queued frames, but there's a failure after the first two. (2, 3) where transmitted, (4, 1, 2) failed. 5. We step through the failed frames 5.1. We see frame 4 failed, but seq_to_tap == 3 <= 4, so we ignore it 5.2. We see frame 1 failed, and seq_to_tap == 3 > 1 so we rewind to 1. This is correct, because our retransmit failed and we need to do it again. 5.3. We see frame 2 failed, but seq_to_tap == 1 <= 2 so ignore The steps are slightly different, but I'm pretty sure this also does the right thing if - In the retransmit we get further than we got with the initial transmits - We start a retransmit several times (in a single queue batch (not sure if that's possible). This could involve multiple rewinds during a single revert scan, but while that's arguably non-optimal it should be both rare and not really that expensive. - The retransmit starts from a point after the earliest initial frame in the queue (how would the peer request a retransmit for something we never transmitted? but maybe possible if the first transmit in this queue batch is itself a retransmit from an earlier cycle. -- David Gibson | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you.

Basically we rewind seq_to_tap each time we find an untransmitted frame that sits before it. Theoretically that could involve multiple rewinds, but a) that's not fatal, merely suboptimal and b) it won't happen in practice, since frames in the queue will (nearly?) always have increasing sequence numbers.-- David Gibson | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you.
