From b38a51fec1c1f693f03b1aa19d0622123634d4b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuchung Cheng Date: Wed, 16 May 2018 16:40:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: disable RFC6675 loss detection This patch disables RFC6675 loss detection and make sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery = 1 controls a binary choice between RACK (1) or RFC6675 (0).
