[PATCH] Add missing explicit PSH assignment
For packets with data, we set the PSH flag depending on whether it's the last chunk of data in a single receive operation from a socket. But then we reuse the same buffers for SYN segments, and oops, PSH is set randomly. This change cleans this up by setting PSH explicitly, just as we do with the other flags. --- tcp.c | 1 + tcp_internal.h | 1 + 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/tcp.c b/tcp.c index dba5fdc..a27b069 100644 --- a/tcp.c +++ b/tcp.c @@ -1176,6 +1176,7 @@ int tcp_prepare_flags(const struct ctx *c, struct tcp_tap_conn *conn, th->doff = (sizeof(*th) + *optlen) / 4; th->ack = !!(flags & ACK); + th->psh = !!(flags & PSH); th->rst = !!(flags & RST); th->syn = !!(flags & SYN); th->fin = !!(flags & FIN); diff --git a/tcp_internal.h b/tcp_internal.h index 36c6533..9dae688 100644 --- a/tcp_internal.h +++ b/tcp_internal.h @@ -26,6 +26,7 @@ #define FIN (1 << 0) #define SYN (1 << 1) #define RST (1 << 2) +#define PSH (1 << 3) #define ACK (1 << 4) /* Flags for internal usage */ -- 2.47.2

Thanks, applied, and welcome to the git log! For the future: it would be nice if you could use the Signed-off-by: tag to imply all this stuff: https://developercertificate.org/. Here I added it for you as an exception as I know that it's clearly the case, and the change is trivial. By the way, 'git commit --signoff' adds it. -- Stefano

Thanks for the hint! I will re-send my third patch: "Send an initial ARP request to resolve the guest IP address" again to this list, including a proper "Signed-off-by" tag. Best regards, Volker -- .---<<<((()))>>>---. | [[||]] | '---<<<((()))>>>---'
