[PATCH net-next 2/8] rxrpc: Send an immediate ACK if we fill in a hole

flat view
STALE3678d

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Subsystem: networking [general], rxrpc sockets (af_rxrpc), the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Howells, Marc Dionne, Linus Torvalds

Send an immediate ACK if we fill in a hole in the buffer left by an
out-of-sequence packet.  This may allow the congestion management in the peer
to avoid a retransmission if packets got reordered on the wire.
