Re: [PATCH net-next] tcp: inherit listener congestion control for passive cnx

From: Rick Jones <hidden>
Date: 2011-11-30 21:29:02

Rick Jones reported that TCP_CONGESTION sockopt performed on a listener
was ignored for its children sockets : right after accept() the
congestion control for new socket is the system default one.

This seems an oversight of the initial design (quoted from Stephen)

Based on prior investigation and patch from Rick.

Tested-by: Rick Jones <redacted>

Works as expected/desired with my test program, and doesn't appear to 
affect performance measurably (loopback netperf TCP_CC test on a 1 VCPU 
guest).
