From 4cecd7e369e1b252db1d64451462221b362eed1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Sat, 8 Jun 2019 10:22:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: enforce tcp_min_snd_mss in tcp_mtu_probing() commit 967c05aee439e6e5d7d805e195b3a20ef5c433d6 upstream. If mtu probing is enabled tcp_mtu_probing() could very well end up with a too small MSS. Use the new sysctl tcp_min_snd_mss to make sure MSS search is performed in an acceptable range.
