Qing Luo 0de370f9bb sctp: fix addip_serial increment on ASCONF_ACK allocation failure
[ Upstream commit aa2e13ae8d ]

In sctp_process_asconf(), when sctp_make_asconf_ack() fails to allocate
the ASCONF_ACK chunk due to memory pressure, the code jumps to the
done label where asoc->peer.addip_serial is unconditionally incremented.

This leaves the peer's ASCONF (serial N) unacknowledged while the local
endpoint now expects serial N+1. When the peer retransmits serial N, it
falls into the serial < addip_serial + 1 branch ,
which attempts to look up a cached ACK for serial N. No cached ACK
exists since the allocation failed, so the retransmission is silently
discarded. The peer eventually times out and ABORTs the association.

Move the addip_serial increment inside the if (asconf_ack) block so that
the serial number is only advanced when the ASCONF_ACK is successfully
created and cached. This way, on allocation failure, the serial number
is unchanged and the peer's retransmitted ASCONF will be correctly
re-processed.

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.
