Message-Id: <1357770090-29253-1-git-send-email-subramanian.vijay@gmail.com> Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2013 14:21:30 -0800 From: Vijay Subramanian <subramanian.vijay@...il.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: davem@...emloft.net, edumazet@...gle.com, rick.jones2@...com, Vijay Subramanian <subramanian.vijay@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH net-next] doc: Clarify behavior when sysctl tcp_ecn = 1 Recent commit (commit 7e3a2dc52953 doc: make the description of how tcp_ecn works more explicit and clear ) clarified the behavior of tcp_ecn sysctl variable but description is inconsistent. When requested by incoming conections, ECN is enabled with not just tcp_ecn = 2 but also with tcp_ecn = 1. This patch makes it clear that with tcp_ecn = 1, ECN is enabled when requested by incoming connections. Also fix spelling of 'incoming'.
