Dmitry Safonov 953af8e3ac net/tcp: Ignore specific ICMPs for TCP-AO connections
Similarly to IPsec, RFC5925 prescribes:
  ">> A TCP-AO implementation MUST default to ignore incoming ICMPv4
  messages of Type 3 (destination unreachable), Codes 2-4 (protocol
  unreachable, port unreachable, and fragmentation needed -- ’hard
  errors’), and ICMPv6 Type 1 (destination unreachable), Code 1
  (administratively prohibited) and Code 4 (port unreachable) intended
  for connections in synchronized states (ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-
  WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, LAST-ACK, TIME-WAIT) that match MKTs."

A selftest (later in patch series) verifies that this attack is not
possible in this TCP-AO implementation.

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.
