Subject: PROBLEM: TCP through vpnx dev stalls

Hallo everybody,

I see certain tcp traffing stalling with kernel 3.8.0-22.33 (current
Raring Ringtail version). It is 100% reproducible when I scp a file
(>100 kB) to a machine on the other side. Copying a file of any size in
the other direction (from the remote machine) to my box works fine. I
see somewhat similiar problems doing large HTTP POSTs to the remote
machine or when I run a remote X application.

I tried several versions of openconnect 4.06, 4.07 and 4.99 on linux
3.8.0-22 and see this behaviour with all versions.

On the same system everything works fine by just swapping the kernel
booting to 3.5.0-27.46 (latest from Quantal Quetzal).


Additional information (e.g. tcpdump output) is at launchpad (bug 1185884)
where I originally reported to bug.
