3.6.11.1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Yuchung Cheng [ Upstream commit 9d475971466bf0e4c65a88d46031b8127a767897 ] On receiving the SYN-ACK, Fast Open checks icsk_retransmit for SYN retransmission to detect SYN/data drops. But if F-RTO is disabled, icsk_retransmit is reset at step D of tcp_fastretrans_alert() ( under tcp_ack()) before tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(). The fix is to use total_retrans instead which accounts for SYN retransmission regardless the use of F-RTO. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: David S.
