Eric Dumazet bcf95ac62c tcp: grow window for OOO packets only for SACK flows
[ Upstream commit 662051215c ]

Back in 2013, we made a change that broke fast retransmit
for non SACK flows.

Indeed, for these flows, a sender needs to receive three duplicate
ACK before starting fast retransmit. Sending ACK with different
receive window do not count.

Even if enabling SACK is strongly recommended these days,
there still are some cases where it has to be disabled.

Not increasing the window seems better than having to
rely on RTO.

After the fix, following packetdrill test gives :

// Initialize connection
    0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
   +0 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0
   +0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0
   +0 listen(3, 1) = 0

   +0 < S 0:0(0) win 32792 <mss 1000,nop,wscale 7>
   +0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460,nop,wscale 8>
   +0 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 514

   +0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4

   +0 < . 1:1001(1000) ack 1 win 514
// Quick ack
   +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1001 win 264

   +0 < . 2001:3001(1000) ack 1 win 514
// DUPACK : Normally we should not change the window
   +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1001 win 264

   +0 < . 3001:4001(1000) ack 1 win 514
// DUPACK : Normally we should not change the window
   +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1001 win 264

   +0 < . 4001:5001(1000) ack 1 win 514
// DUPACK : Normally we should not change the window
    +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1001 win 264

   +0 < . 1001:2001(1000) ack 1 win 514
// Hole is repaired.
   +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 5001 win 272

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
