In the event that an association exceeds its max_retrans attempts, we should
send an ABORT chunk indicating that we are closing the assocation as a result.
Because of the nature of the error, its unlikely to be received, but its a nice
clean way to close the association if it does make it through, and it will give
anyone watching via tcpdump a clue as to what happened.

Neil

You ended dropping the parameter information of the parameter that 
caused the violation.  Was that intentional?

Yes, it was, because theres not really IMO a specific parameter that causes this
abort condition.  If a chunk needs to be resent more than max_retrans times, we
abort the connection, theres no specific parameter that we can point to that
says "this caused the problem", we're just aborting because we can't get a SACK 
from the peer.  Likewise, I can't think of any information that we can include
that would give the peer, or the anyone tcpdumping the connection an improved
view as to why the abort happened, beyond the string this patch currently
includes.

I know I had privately sent you an early version of the patch as a rough draft
which did include space for a param header, but that patch never filled that
space out, since we don't have any valid information to fill it out with.

Thanks & Regards
Neil

Sure there is.  You changed sctp_make_violation_paramlen() which is 
called when we receive a protocol parameter which has an invalid length.
This triggers a violation and the parameter is report back.  This has 
nothing to do with max_rtx overflow.

The new code doesn't have to include parameter information and I am fine 
with that.

It looks like you tried to re-use sctp_make_violation_paramlen(), 
abandoned that approach, but forgot to fully restore the old function...

Oh hell, you're right, my apologies, thats exactly what happened, and I
misunderstood what you were saying.  I thought you were asking why I wasn't
including a parameter segment in the max_retrans abort (because there isn't
any).  I completly missed the fact that I inadvertently mangled the
sctp_violation_paramlen function. 

I'll fix that up and repost.

Thanks
Neil
