And after take a moment to look into the relative codes, I think we can implement it by below way: 1). Add a flag(isi_err_needed) in the embedded struct peer ofstructquoted

struct sctp_association just like sack_needed flag. 2). When "invalid stream identifier" ERROR happens insctp_eat_data()quoted

function, we just set isi_err_needed flag and don't create ERROR chunk and also don't insert SCTP_CMD_REPLY command. 3). In sctp_gen_sack() function, we create ERROR chunk and alsoinsertquoted

SCTP_CMD_REPLY command if isi_err_needed flag is set. Is this way proper?So, I looked at the code, and it looks very simple to do. Wealreadyquoted

return a specific status from sctp_eat_data() when the error was generated. All you have to do is take the code that generates theerrorquoted

and adds it to the command list and give it its own small functionthatquoted

you can then call if SCTP_IERROR_BAD_STREAM error was returned.No, it will still has the same problem by just doing this. SCTP_CMD_GEN_SACK command actually don't enqueue SACK to outqueue, sctp_gen_sack() do this things when processing SCTP_CMD_GEN_SACKcommandquoted
in sctp_cmd_interpreter(). So it's not enough if we just insert SCTP_ERROR_INV_STRM commandafterquoted
sctp_eat_data() return SCTP_IERROR_BAD_STREAM insctp_sf_eat_data_6_2(). Yes, I just tried this way, SACK is still bundled after ERROR chunk. But I think my above method is also not fine if there are multiple error DATA chunks bundled in a packet. Really awesome!1. Catch the error return. 2. Set flag indicating error is needed. 3. Queue sack as needed. 4. If error flag set call new function to queue error chunk.
Both step 3 and 4 need lots of changes to make it working since SACK is ready to queue only at the end of the packet and we also need to deal with multiple "invalid stream identifier" ERROR chunks in a single packet. Thanks, Xufeng Zhang
That should fix things. Do this in all callers of sctp_eat_data. -vladquoted
