commit765947b81fupstream. In batadv_tp_avail(), win_left is calculated with 32-bit unsigned arithmetic: win_left = win_limit - tp_vars->last_sent; During Fast Recovery, cwnd is inflated and last_sent advances rapidly. When Fast Recovery ends, cwnd drops abruptly back to ss_threshold. If the newly shrunk win_limit is less than last_sent, the unsigned subtraction will underflow, wrapping to a massive positive value. Instead of returning that the window is full (unavailable), it returns that the sender can continue sending. To handle this situation, it must be checked whether the windows end sequence number (win_limit) has to be compared with the last sent sequence number. If it would be before the last sent sequence number, then more acks are needed before the transmission can be started again.

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.
