Currently, we use length of DSACKed range to compute number of
delivered packets. And if sequence range in DSACK is corrupted,
we can get bogus dsacked/acked count, and bogus cwnd.

This patch put bounds on DSACKed range to skip update of data
delivery and spurious retransmission information, if the DSACK
is unlikely caused by sender's action:
- DSACKed range shouldn't be greater than maximum advertised rwnd.
- Total no. of DSACKed segments shouldn't be greater than total
  no. of retransmitted segs. Unlike spurious retransmits, network
  duplicates or corrupted DSACKs shouldn't be counted as delivery.

<title>tcp: add SNMP counter for no. of duplicate segments reported by DSACK</title>

There are two existing SNMP counters, TCPDSACKRecv and TCPDSACKOfoRecv,
which are incremented depending on whether the DSACKed range is below
the cumulative ACK sequence number or not. Unfortunately, these both
implicitly assume each DSACK covers only one segment. This makes these
counters unusable for estimating spurious retransmit rates,
or real/non-spurious loss rate.

This patch introduces a new SNMP counter, TCPDSACKRecvSegs, which tracks
the estimated number of duplicate segments based on:
(DSACKed sequence range) / MSS. This counter is usable for estimating
spurious retransmit rates, or real/non-spurious loss rate.

Using IPv6 flow-label to swiftly route around avoid congested or
disconnected network path can greatly improve TCP reliability.

This patch adds SNMP counters and a OPT_STATS counter to track both
host-level and connection-level statistics. Network administrators
can use these counters to evaluate the impact of this new ability better.

Export count for rehash attempts to
1) two SNMP counters: TcpTimeoutRehash (rehash due to timeouts),
   and TcpDuplicateDataRehash (rehash due to receiving duplicate
   packets)
2) Timestamping API SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS.

Jonathan Looney reported that a malicious peer can force a sender
to fragment its retransmit queue into tiny skbs, inflating memory
usage and/or overflow 32bit counters.

TCP allows an application to queue up to sk_sndbuf bytes,
so we need to give some allowance for non malicious splitting
of retransmit queue.

A new SNMP counter is added to monitor how many times TCP
did not allow to split an skb if the allowance was exceeded.

Note that this counter might increase in the case applications
use SO_SNDBUF socket option to lower sk_sndbuf.

CVE-2019-11478 : tcp_fragment, prevent fragmenting a packet when the
	socket is already using more than half the allowed space

<title>tcp: add backup TFO key infrastructure</title>

We would like to be able to rotate TFO keys while minimizing the number of
client cookies that are rejected. Currently, we have only one key which can
be used to generate and validate cookies, thus if we simply replace this
key clients can easily have cookies rejected upon rotation.

We propose having the ability to have both a primary key and a backup key.
The primary key is used to generate as well as to validate cookies.
The backup is only used to validate cookies. Thus, keys can be rotated as:

1) generate new key
2) add new key as the backup key
3) swap the primary and backup key, thus setting the new key as the primary

We don't simply set the new key as the primary key and move the old key to
the backup slot because the ip may be behind a load balancer and we further
allow for the fact that all machines behind the load balancer will not be
updated simultaneously.

We make use of this infrastructure in subsequent patches.
