Currently RACK would mark loss before the undo operations in TCP loss recovery. This could incorrectly identify real losses as spurious. For example a sender first experiences a delay spike and then eventually some packets were lost due to buffer overrun. In this case, the sender should perform fast recovery b/c not all the packets were lost. But the sender may first trigger a (spurious) RTO and reset cwnd to 1. The following ACKs may used to mark real losses by tcp_rack_mark_lost. Then in tcp_process_loss this ACK could trigger F-RTO undo condition and unmark real losses and revert the cwnd reduction. If there are no more ACKs coming back, eventually the sender would timeout again instead of performing fast recovery. The patch fixes this incorrect process by always performing the undo checks before detecting losses.
