Dear Linux Developers,
change set "tcp: randomize tcp timestamp offsets for each connection"
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=95a22caee396cef0bb2ca8fafdd82966a49367bb
broke networking for several users starting from linux-4.10 -
connects (even to localhost) would just time out in many cases.
See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194723
for a detailed description and the "git bisect" log.
Thanks for considering any fix in advance, best regards,
Lutz Vieweg
