into two patches: the first just fixes the RFC number in comments but has
no actual code changes; the second does the actual fixing, including:
- Making the in/exiting fast/RTO recovery flags available to RACK-TLP code
after the Reorder timer expires.
- Arming the RTO timer if no other timer is running and there is unacked
data.
- Initialising the TLP state in the correct place.
- Not resetting the xmit timestamp when marking a packet lost.
- Correctly checking the flight size.
- Correctly tracking the number of packets in the Tx window that have been
re-sent and thus correctly estimating the flight size.
follow-up. Also Linus is pushing back quite a bit on fixes this late in the
cycle; we are trying to defer things to 'next', where appropriate.
I think patch 1/2 will not pass Linus' filter, and possibly even patch 2/2
WDYT about targeting net-next here?
If sashiko is deferrable, no need to repost.
