From 89ebd197eb2cd31d6187db344d5117064e19fdde Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2005 10:13:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [TCP]: Unconditionally clear TCP_NAGLE_PUSH in skb_entail(). Intention of this bit is to force pushing of the existing send queue when TCP_CORK or TCP_NODELAY state changes via setsockopt(). But it's easy to create a situation where the bit never clears. For example, if the send queue starts empty: 1) set TCP_NODELAY 2) clear TCP_NODELAY 3) set TCP_CORK 4) do small write() The current code will leave TCP_NAGLE_PUSH set after that sequence. Unconditionally clearing the bit when new data is added via skb_entail() solves the problem. Signed-off-by: David S.
