commit ccab044697980c6c01ab51f43f48f13b8a3e5c33 upstream.
When skb_ext_add(skb, SKB_EXT_MPTCP) fails in mptcp_incoming_options(),
we used to return true, letting the segment proceed through the TCP
receive path without a DSS mapping. Such segments can leave inconsistent
mapping state and trigger a mid-stream fallback to TCP, which in testing
collapsed (by artificially forcing failures in skb_ext_add) throughput
to zero.
Return false instead so the TCP input path drops the skb (see
tcp_data_queue() and step-7 processing). This is the safer choice
under memory pressure: it preserves MPTCP correctness and provides
backpressure to the sender.
Control packets remain unaffected: ACK updates and DATA_FIN handling
happen before attempting the extension allocation, and tcp_reset()
continues to ignore the return value.
With this change, MPTCP continues to work at high throughput if we
artificially inject failures into skb_ext_add.

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
