For now, skb will be dropped when no memory, which makes client keep retrans util timeout and it's not friendly to the users. In this patch, we reply an ACK with zero-window in this case to update the snd_wnd of the sender to 0. Therefore, the sender won't timeout the connection and will probe the zero-window with the retransmits.

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.
