    tcp: ECN blackhole should not force quickack mode · 7a269ffa
    Eric Dumazet 提交于
    While playing with a new ADSL box at home, I discovered that ECN
    blackhole can trigger suboptimal quickack mode on linux : We send one
    ACK for each incoming data frame, without any delay and eventual
    piggyback.
    
    This is because TCP_ECN_check_ce() considers that if no ECT is seen on a
    segment, this is because this segment was a retransmit.
    
    Refine this heuristic and apply it only if we seen ECT in a previous
    segment, to detect ECN blackhole at IP level.
