This looks great, series applied, thanks Eric.

So now we handle locally terminated traffic well, however we still need
something that handles traffic flowing through the system.  And for that
reason the CAKE ACK filter still has merit.

I completely agree with you that it has to be implemented properly,
parse all TCP options and the SACK blocks, and pass the ACKs through
when there are options it doesn't understand or the SACK/timestampe/etc.
update contains new information that must be passed along and not dropper.

Thanks again.

Be assured I will carefully review Cake ACK filter ;)

Thanks David !
