Subject: [PATCH 4.1 13/45] tcp: disable Fast Open on timeouts after handshake
4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@...gle.com>
[ Upstream commit 0e45f4da5981895e885dd72fe912a3f8e32bae73 ]
Some middle-boxes black-hole the data after the Fast Open handshake
(https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/94/slides/slides-94-tcpm-13.pdf).
The exact reason is unknown. The work-around is to disable Fast Open
temporarily after multiple recurring timeouts with few or no data
delivered in the established state.
