We autotune rcvbuf whenever SO_RCVLOWAT is set to account for 100% overhead in tcp_set_rcvlowat() This works well when skb->len/skb->truesize ratio is bigger than 0.5 But if we receive packets with small MSS, we can end up in a situation where not enough bytes are available in the receive queue to satisfy RCVLOWAT setting. As our sk_rcvbuf limit is hit, we send zero windows in ACK packets, preventing remote peer from sending more data. Even autotuning does not help, because it only triggers at the time user process drains the queue. If no EPOLLIN is generated, this can not happen. Note poll() has a similar issue, after commit |

README
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.
