Marcelo Ricardo Leitner says: ==================== sctp: RFC 4960 Errata fixes This patchset contains fixes for 4 Errata topics from https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-rfc4960-errata-01 Namely, sections: 3.12. Order of Adjustments of partial_bytes_acked and cwnd 3.22. Increase of partial_bytes_acked in Congestion Avoidance 3.26. CWND Increase in Congestion Avoidance Phase 3.27. Refresh of cwnd and ssthresh after Idle Period Tests performed with netperf using net namespaces, with drop rates at 0%, 0.5% and 1% by netem, IPv4 and IPv6, 10 runs for each combination. I couldn't spot differences on the stats. With and without these patches the results vary in a similar way in terms of throughput and retransmissions. Tests with 20ms delay and 20ms delay + drops at 0.5% and 1% also had results in a similar way, no noticeable difference. Looking at cwnd, it was possible to notice slightly lower values being used while still sustaining same throughput profile. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
