4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 114f39feab360e6c7b0c4238697f223444d662a1 ]
When adding rb-tree for TCP retransmit queue, we inadvertently broke
TCP autocorking.
tcp_should_autocork() should really check if the rtx queue is not empty.
Tested:
Before the fix :
$ nstat -n;./netperf -H 10.246.7.152 -Cc -- -m 500;nstat | grep AutoCork
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 10.246.7.152 () port 0 AF_INET
