From 7e38017557bc0b87434d184f8804cadb102bb903 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Petlund Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2010 04:48:19 +0000 Subject: net: TCP thin dupack This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol and the stream is identified as thin. Signed-off-by: Andreas Petlund Signed-off-by: David S.
