The RDS handshake ping probe added by commit 5916e2c1554f
("RDS: TCP: Enable multipath RDS for TCP") is sent from rds_sendmsg()
before the first data packet is sent to a peer. If the conversation
is not bidirectional (i.e., one side is always passive and never
invokes rds_sendmsg()) and the passive side restarts its rds_tcp
module, a new HS ping probe needs to be sent, so that the number
of paths can be re-established.
This patch achieves that by sending a HS ping probe from
rds_tcp_accept_one() when c_npaths is 0 (i.e., we have not done
a handshake probe with this peer yet).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
