Not like that—just stop reading from the socket, causing the server to advertise a zero-length window to the client. The client will then know that writes are blocking / not being processed. And when the server has more capacity, free up the buffers and the kernel will send a window update to the client automatically.On Tue, 2014-04-22 at 19:04 +0200, Miloslav Trmač wrote:Sure, that's one way when bandwidth is the issue.

though, and just closing the connection on the client if you do not want
any traffic is a bit blunt. It also does not give the client any idea
when it is ok to retry.
