From: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a29cb6914681a55667436a9eb7a42e28da8cf387 ] This patch aims to improve the situation when reordering and loss are ocurring in the same flight of packets. Previously the reordering would first induce a spurious recovery, then the subsequent ACK may undo the cwnd (based on the timestamps e.g.). However the current loss recovery does not proceed to invoke RACK to install a reordering timer. If some packets are also lost, this may lead to a long RTO-based recovery. An example is https://groups.google.com/g/bbr-dev/c/OFHADvJbTEI The solution is to after reverting the recovery, always invoke RACK to either mount the RACK timer to fast retransmit after the reordering window, or restarts the recovery if new loss is identified. Hence it is possible the sender may go from Recovery to Disorder/Open to Recovery again in one ACK.
