I must have deleted it by accident when I removed the 'paranoid´ test SEQ_GE(conn->seq_to_tap, equal conn->seq_ack_from_tap). It worked in my test simply because this never happens. I actually had to test the logics in a separate program. Thank you for spotting this. ///jonI'm pretty sure this needs one more call to tcp_set_peek_offset() inside the revert function introduced in the previous patch. Otherwise looks good.From linux-6.9.0 the kernel will containcommit 05ea491641d3 ("tcp: add support for SO_PEEK_OFF socket option"). This new feature makes is possible to call recv_msg(MSG_PEEK) and make it start reading data from a given offset set by the SO_PEEK_OFF socket option. This way, we can avoid repeated reading of already read bytes of a received message, hence saving read cycles when forwarding TCP messages in the host->name space direction. In this commit, we add functionality to leverage this feature when available, while we fall back to the previous behavior when not. Measurements with iperf3 shows that throughput increases with 15-20 percent in the host->namespace direction when this feature is used.
