From 4faf783998b8cb88294e9df89032f473f8771b78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuchung Cheng Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2017 20:38:51 -0700 Subject: tcp: fix cwnd undo in Reno and HTCP congestion controls Using ssthresh to revert cwnd is less reliable when ssthresh is bounded to 2 packets. This patch uses an existing variable in TCP "prior_cwnd" that snapshots the cwnd right before entering fast recovery and RTO recovery in Reno. This fixes the issue discussed in netdev thread: "A buggy behavior for Linux TCP Reno and HTCP" https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg444955.html Suggested-by: Neal Cardwell Reported-by: Wei Sun Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: David S.
