[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 144/211] tcp: apply Kern's check on RTTs used for congestion control

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9e45a3e36b363cc4c79c70f2b4f994e66543a219 upstream.

Currently ca_seq_rtt_us does not use Kern's check. Fix that by
checking if any packet acked is a retransmit, for both RTT used
for RTT estimation and congestion control.

Fixes: 5b08e47ca ("tcp: prefer packet timing to TS-ECR for RTT")
