Current implementation does not handling backlog semantics, one potential risk is that server will be flooded by infinite amount connections, even if client was SMC-incapable. This patch works to put a limit on backlog connections, referring to the TCP implementation, we divides SMC connections into two categories: 1. Half SMC connection, which includes all TCP established while SMC not connections. 2. Full SMC connection, which includes all SMC established connections. For half SMC connection, since all half SMC connections starts with TCP established, we can achieve our goal by put a limit before TCP established. Refer to the implementation of TCP, this limits will based on not only the half SMC connections but also the full connections, which is also a constraint on full SMC connections. For full SMC connections, although we know exactly where it starts, it's quite hard to put a limit before it. The easiest way is to block wait before receive SMC confirm CLC message, while it's under protection by smc_server_lgr_pending, a global lock, which leads this limit to the entire host instead of a single listen socket. Another way is to drop the full connections, but considering the cast of SMC connections, we prefer to keep full SMC connections. Even so, the limits of full SMC connections still exists, see commits about half SMC connection below. After this patch, the limits of backend connection shows like: For SMC: 1. Client with SMC-capability can makes 2 * backlog full SMC connections or 1 * backlog half SMC connections and 1 * backlog full SMC connections at most. 2. Client without SMC-capability can only makes 1 * backlog half TCP connections and 1 * backlog full TCP connections. Signed-off-by: D. Wythe <alibuda@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
