From fcd16c0a95a8faf4d310f94d831b22f901c5a744 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuchung Cheng Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2015 11:18:18 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: don't extend RTO on failed loss probe attempts If TLP was unable to send a probe, it extended the RTO to now + icsk_rto. But extending the RTO makes little sense if no TLP probe went out. With this commit, instead of extending the RTO we re-arm it relative to the transmit time of the write queue head.
