[PATCH resent] tcp: ioctl type SIOCOUTQNSD returns amount of data not sent

From: Steffen Sledz <hidden>
Date: 2011-03-04 08:48:46
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: generic include/asm header files, networking [general], networking [tcp], the rest · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Neal Cardwell, Linus Torvalds

From: Mario Schuknecht <redacted>

In contrast to SIOCOUTQ which returns the amount of data sent
but not yet acknowledged plus data not yet sent this patch only
returns the data not sent.

For various methods of live streaming bitrate control it may
be helpful to know how much data are in the tcp outqueue are
not sent yet.
