A BPF TCP congestion control program can call bpf_setsockopt() from
its callbacks. In current kernels, if it calls
bpf_setsockopt(TCP_NODELAY) from cwnd_event_tx_start(), the call can
re-enter the TCP transmit path before the outer tcp_transmit_skb()
has completed and advanced the send head.
This can re-trigger CA_EVENT_TX_START and lead to unbounded recursion:
tcp_transmit_skb()
-> tcp_event_data_sent()
-> tcp_ca_event(sk, CA_EVENT_TX_START)
-> cwnd_event_tx_start()
-> bpf_setsockopt(TCP_NODELAY)
-> tcp_push_pending_frames()
-> tcp_write_xmit()
-> tcp_transmit_skb()
This leads to unbounded recursion and can overflow the kernel stack.
Reject TCP_NODELAY with -EOPNOTSUPP for bpf-tcp-cc by introducing
a dedicated setsockopt proto for BPF_PROG_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS TCP
congestion control programs. To keep it simple, all tcp-cc ops is
rejected for TCP_NODELAY.
