Merge branch 'tcp-revert-a-F-RTO-extension-due-to-broken-middle-boxes'
Yuchung Cheng says: ==================== tcp: revert a F-RTO extension due to broken middle-boxes This patch series reverts a (non-standard) TCP F-RTO extension that aimed to detect more spurious timeouts. Unfortunately it could result in poor performance due to broken middle-boxes that modify TCP packets. E.g. https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg484154.html We believe the best and simplest solution is to just revert the change. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
