commitcbde75c38bupstream. If the size of the packets would change during the transmission, it could happen that some retries of packets are overlapping. In this case, precise comparisons of sequence numbers by the receiver would be wrong. It is then necessary to check if the start sequence number to the end sequence number ("seqno + length") would contain a new range. If this is the case then this is enough to accept this packet. In all other cases, the packet still has to be dropped (and not acked).

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.
