I guess that if you send SYN packets 3 times as your email did on netdev, that might cause some issues... More seriously, server has a SYN_RECV socket with same tuple, because of a SYN sent earlier : 8:36:00.593136 IP XX.YY.ZZ.VV.24548 > AA.BB.CC.DD.443: Flags [S], seq 1204544933, win 29200, options [mss 1320,sackOK,TS val 6032576 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 18:36:00.593171 IP AA.BB.CC.DD.443 > XX.YY.ZZ.VV.24548: Flags [S.], seq 986069863, ack 1204544934, win 14480, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 180940028 ecr 6001497,nop,wscale 5], length 0 18:36:00.992699 IP AA.BB.CC.DD.443 > XX.YY.ZZ.VV.24548: Flags [S.], seq 986069863, ack 1204544934, win 14480, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 180940128 ecr 6001497,nop,wscale 5], length 0 >From these traces, we can guess a SYN packet was sent about 31 seconds earlier. SYNACK rtx do not update the TSECR : Initial SYN TSval value (6001497) is mirrored.
