[PATCH net] tcp: avoid cwnd undo after receiving ECN
From: Yuchung Cheng <hidden>
Date: 2016-01-29 23:12:22
RFC 4015 section 3.4 says the TCP sender MUST refrain from reversing the congestion control state when the ACK signals congestion through the ECN-Echo flag. Currently we may not always do that when prior_ssthresh is reset upon receiving ACKs with ECE marks. This patch fixes that.
