For passive TCP Fast Open sockets that had SYN/ACK timeout and did not send more data in SYN_RECV, upon receiving the final ACK in 3WHS, the congestion state may awkwardly stay in CA_Loss mode unless the CA state was undone due to TCP timestamp checks. However, if tcp_rcv_synrecv_state_fastopen() decides not to undo, then we should enter CA_Open, because at that point we have received an ACK covering the retransmitted SYNACKs. Currently, the icsk_ca_state is only set to CA_Open after we receive an ACK for a data-packet. This is because tcp_ack does not call tcp_fastretrans_alert (and tcp_process_loss) if !prior_packets Note that tcp_process_loss() calls tcp_try_undo_recovery(), so having tcp_rcv_synrecv_state_fastopen() decide that if we're in CA_Loss we should call tcp_try_undo_recovery() is consistent with that, and low risk.

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.
