Yuchung Cheng says: ==================== simplify TCP loss marking code The TCP loss marking is implemented by a set of intertwined subroutines. TCP has several loss detection algorithms (RACK, RFC6675/FACK, NewReno, etc) each calls a subset of these routines to mark a packet lost. This has led to various bugs (and fixes and fixes of fixes). This patch set is to consolidate the loss marking code so all detection algorithms call the same routine tcp_mark_skb_lost(). ==================== 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.
