Dave, you could consider applying other than the last one if they seem ok to you too (you'll need to rebase your tcp-2.6 in that case first to apply cleanly those that touch tcp_sync_left_out :-)).Absolutely, I'll do the quick rebase of tcp-2.6 and review + applying of your patches (except the last one) over the weekend.While you're in the right context (reviewing patch 8), you could also look if tcp_clean_rtx_queue does a right thing when passing a strange pkts_acked to congestion control modules. I wonder if it really should ignore GSO the way it does currently... I read some cc module code and some was adding it to snd_cwnd_cnt, etc. which is a strong indication that GSO should be considered... Also if the head is GSO skb that is not completely acked, the loop breaks with pkts_acked being zero, I doubt that can be correct...
I rebased tcp-2.6, applied your patches 1-7 (which I'll comment a bit on tomorrow) and will likely take a look at these issues wrt. patch 8 tomorrow.
