[PATCH] tcp: extend window to fit all restored unacked data in a send queue

From: Andrey Vagin
Date: Tue May 31 2016 - 11:03:05 EST


Data from a send queue is sent only if there is enough space in a
window, so when we restore unacked data, we need to expand a window to
fit this data.

Currently we don't do this and tcp_acceptable_seq() returns
tcp_wnd_end(tp) instead of tp->snd_nxt. The other side drops packets
with this seq, becuse tcp_sequence() returns false (seq < tp->rcv_nxt).
