Jakub Kicinski 9ee926213f Merge branch 'mptcp-fallback-to-tcp-after-3-mpc-drop-cache'
Matthieu Baerts says:

====================
mptcp: fallback to TCP after 3 MPC drop + cache

The SYN + MPTCP_CAPABLE packets could be explicitly dropped by firewalls
somewhere in the network, e.g. if they decide to drop packets based on
the TCP options, instead of stripping them off.

The idea of this series is to fallback to TCP after 3 SYN+MPC drop
(patch 2). If the connection succeeds after the fallback, it very likely
means a blackhole has been detected. In this case (patch 3), MPTCP can
be disabled for a certain period of time, 1h by default. If after this
period, MPTCP is still blocked, the period is doubled. This technique is
inspired by the one used by TCP FastOpen.

This should help applications which want to use MPTCP by default on the
client side if available.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
