[ Upstream commit 6bf536eb5c8ca011d1ff57b5c5f7c57ceac06a37 ] rmbe_update_limit is used to limit announcing receive window updating too frequently. RFC7609 request a minimal increase in the window size of 10% of the receive buffer space. But current implementation used: min_t(int, rmbe_size / 10, SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF / 2) and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF / 2 == 2304 Bytes, which is almost always less then 10% of the receive buffer space. This causes the receiver always sending CDC message to update its consumer cursor when it consumes more then 2K of data. And as a result, we may encounter something like "TCP silly window syndrome" when sending 2.5~8K message. This patch fixes this using max(rmbe_size / 10, SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF / 2). With this patch and SMC autocorking enabled, qperf 2K/4K/8K tcp_bw test shows 45%/75%/40% increase in throughput respectively.

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.
