Paolo Abeni says: ==================== mptcp: improve multiple xmit streams support This series improves MPTCP handling of multiple concurrent xmit streams. The to-be-transmitted data is enqueued to a subflow only when the send window is open, keeping the subflows xmit queue shorter and allowing for faster switch-over. The above requires a more accurate msk socket state tracking and some additional infrastructure to allow pushing the data pending in the msk xmit queue as soon as the MPTCP's send window opens (patches 6-10). As a side effect, the MPTCP socket could enqueue data to subflows after close() time - to completely spooling the data sitting in the msk xmit queue. Dealing with the requires some infrastructure and core TCP changes (patches 1-5) Finally, patches 11-12 introduce a more accurate tracking of the other end's receive window. Overall this refactor the MPTCP xmit path, without introducing new features - the new code is covered by the existing self-tests. v2 -> v3: - rebased, - fixed checkpatch issue in patch 1/13 - fixed some state tracking issues in patch 8/13 v1 -> v2: - this is just a repost, to cope with patchwork issues, no changes at all ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1605458224.git.pabeni@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
