dccp: Always generate a Reset in response to option errors
RFC4340 states that if a packet is received with an option error (such as a
Mandatory Option as the last byte of the option list), the endpoint should
repond with a Reset.
In the LISTEN and RESPOND states, the endpoint correctly reponds with Reset,
while in the REQUEST/OPEN states, packets with option errors are just ignored.
The packet sequence is as follows:
Case 1:
Endpoint A Endpoint B
(CLOSED) (CLOSED)
<---------------- REQUEST
RESPONSE -----------------> (*1)
(with invalid option)
<---------------- RESET
(with Reset Code 5, "Option Error")
(*1) currently just ignored, no Reset is sent
Case 2:
Endpoint A Endpoint B
(OPEN) (OPEN)
DATA-ACK -----------------> (*2)
(with invalid option)
<---------------- RESET
(with Reset Code 5, "Option Error")
(*2) currently just ignored, no Reset is sent
This patch fixes the problem, by generating a Reset instead of silently
ignoring option errors.
