[PATCH] bpf, sockmap: Fix self-redirect copied_seq double-counting

From: Geliang Tang <geliang@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-08-29 02:00:49

When a BPF stream_verdict program redirects an skb back to the same
socket (self-redirect with BPF_F_INGRESS), sk_psock_verdict_apply()
calls tcp_eat_skb() which advances tcp_sk->copied_seq. However, the
skb is then delivered to the socket's psock ingress queue and later
read by tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which also advances copied_seq via
the copied_from_self accounting path. This double-counting causes
copied_seq to advance by 2x the actual data length, triggering:

  TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2: copied BF2E806, seq BF2E7FD, \

Fix this by checking if the redirect destination is the same socket.
For self-redirect (dst == psock->sk), skip tcp_eat_skb() since the
copied_seq will be advanced when the data is actually read from the
ingress queue. For cross-socket redirects, tcp_eat_skb() is still
needed to account for data leaving the source socket.

Hi,

I encountered this while adding MPTCP BPF sockmap support. The existing
TCP sockmap selftests don't cover self-redirect, but the MPTCP tests do,
exposing this latent issue.

With this fix, both TCP and MPTCP tests pass, validating self-redirect
functionality.
