Linux kernel source tree
'sk->copied_seq' was updated in the tcp_eat_skb() function when the action
of a BPF program was SK_REDIRECT. For other actions, like SK_PASS, the
update logic for 'sk->copied_seq' was moved to tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser()
to ensure the accuracy of the 'fionread' feature.
It works for a single stream_verdict scenario, as it also modified
sk_data_ready->sk_psock_verdict_data_ready->tcp_read_skb
to remove updating 'sk->copied_seq'.
However, for programs where both stream_parser and stream_verdict are
active (strparser purpose), tcp_read_sock() was used instead of
tcp_read_skb() (sk_data_ready->strp_data_ready->tcp_read_sock).
tcp_read_sock() now still updates 'sk->copied_seq', leading to duplicate
updates.
In summary, for strparser + SK_PASS, copied_seq is redundantly calculated
in both tcp_read_sock() and tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser().
The issue causes incorrect copied_seq calculations, which prevent
correct data reads from the recv() interface in user-land.
We do not want to add new proto_ops to implement a new version of
tcp_read_sock, as this would introduce code complexity [1].
We could have added noack and copied_seq to desc, and then called
ops->read_sock. However, unfortunately, other modules didn’t fully
initialize desc to zero. So, for now, we are directly calling
tcp_read_sock_noack() in tcp_bpf.c.

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 reStructuredText 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.
