From 6514890f7aa8dd75fa46e282a1c7a8615e86f363 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Neal Cardwell Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 13:33:16 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: fix tcp_should_expand_sndbuf() to use tcp_packets_in_flight() tcp_should_expand_sndbuf() does not expand the send buffer if we have filled the congestion window. However, it should use tcp_packets_in_flight() instead of tp->packets_out to make this check. Testing has established that the difference matters a lot if there are many SACKed packets, causing a needless performance shortfall.
