Neal Cardwell says: ==================== tcp_cubic: fix spurious HYSTART_DELAY on RTT decrease This series fixes a long-standing bug in the TCP CUBIC HYSTART_DELAY mechanim recently reported by Mirja Kuehlewind. The code can cause a spurious exit of slow start in some particular cases: upon an RTT decrease that happens on the 9th or later ACK in a round trip. This series fixes the original Hystart code and also the recent BPF implementation. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
