From 5ea8ea2cb7f1d0db15762c9b0bb9e7330425a071 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2016 09:27:57 -0700 Subject: tcp/dccp: drop SYN packets if accept queue is full Per listen(fd, backlog) rules, there is really no point accepting a SYN, sending a SYNACK, and dropping the following ACK packet if accept queue is full, because application is not draining accept queue fast enough. This behavior is fooling TCP clients that believe they established a flow, while there is nothing at server side. They might then send about 10 MSS (if using IW10) that will be dropped anyway while server is under stress.
