Hi,

In the scenario, tcp server side IP changed, and at that memont,
userspace application still send data continuously;
tcp_send_head(sk)'s timestamp always be refreshed.

Here is the packetdrill script:

   0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
   +0 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0
   +0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0
   +0 listen(3, 1) = 0

   +0 < S 0:0(0) win 0 <mss 1460,sackOK,nop,nop,nop,wscale 7>
   +0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7>

  +.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 65530
   +0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4

   +0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, TCP_USER_TIMEOUT, [3000], 4) = 0
   +0 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +0 > P. 1:25(24) ack 1 win 229
   +.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 25 win 65530

//change the ipaddress
   +1 `ifconfig tun0 192.168.0.10/16`

   +1 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +1 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +1 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +1 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24

   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24
   +3 write(4, ..., 24) = 24

   +0 `ifconfig tun0 192.168.0.1/16`
   +0 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 1000
   +0 write(4, ..., 24) = -1
This has nothing to do with the code patch you have changed.

How have you tested your patch exactly ?
I tested the patch, it can work.

if change the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT to 30s, test result as below:

This is the typical RTO timer, not zero window probe.
with the script, it is not zero window; but the code enter tcp_probe_timer.

OK but :

1) keepalive_time_elapsed() returns jiffies, and you compare it to a ms
value. It will break on kernels with HZ=100


2) keepalive_time_elapsed() is reset every time a packet is received.

With following packetdrill your patch (even if we fix 1)) breaks again

I would instead try to keep a meaningful value in
tcp_send_head(sk)->skb_mstamp if the transmit failed.

Or more exactly change skb->skb_mstamp only on (successfully)
transmitted skb.

I will provide a patch ( fixing net/ipv4/tcp_output.c )
