This series include two enhancements for the MPTCP path management, namely RM_ADDR support and ADD_ADDR echo support, as specified by RFC sections 3.4.1 and 3.4.2.
1 RM_ADDR support include 9 patches (1-3 and 8-13): Patch 1 is the helper for patch 2, these two patches add the RM_ADDR outgoing functions, which are derived from ADD_ADDR's corresponding functions. Patch 3 adds the RM_ADDR incoming logic, when RM_ADDR suboption is received, close the subflow matching the rm_id, and update PM counter. Patch 8 is the main remove routine. When the PM netlink removes an address, we traverse all the existing msk sockets to find the relevant sockets. Then trigger the RM_ADDR signal and remove the subflow which using this local address, this subflow removing functions has been implemented in patch 9. Finally, patches 10-13 are the self-tests for RM_ADDR. 2 ADD_ADDR echo support include 7 patches (4-7 and 14-16). Patch 4 adds the ADD_ADDR echo logic, when the ADD_ADDR suboption has been received, send out the same ADD_ADDR suboption with echo-flag, and no HMAC included. Patches 5 and 6 are the self-tests for ADD_ADDR echo. Patch 7 is a little cleaning up. Patch 14 and 15 are the helpers for patch 16. These three patches add the ADD_ADDR retransmition when no ADD_ADDR echo is received.
