Message-Id: <1415308532-4785-1-git-send-email-fw@strlen.de> Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2014 22:15:32 +0100 From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de> To: <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de> Subject: [PATCH iproute2 next] ip route: enable per-route ecn settings via 'features' option This permits to selectively enable explicit congestion notification via the routing table. If this ecn feature is not set, the kernel will use the tcp_ecn sysctl to decide wheter to use ECN when establising a TCP connection. At the time of this writing, the kernel supports ecn and allfrags, but allfrags is of dubious value and not implemented here.
