David S. Miller 337f1b07db Merge branch 'tcp-xmit-timer-rearming'
Neal Cardwell says:

====================
tcp: fix xmit timer rearming to avoid stalls

This patch series is a bug fix for a TCP loss recovery performance bug
reported independently in recent netdev threads:

 (i)  July 26, 2017: netdev thread "TCP fast retransmit issues"
 (ii) July 26, 2017: netdev thread:
       "[PATCH V2 net-next] TLP: Don't reschedule PTO when there's one
       outstanding TLP retransmission"

Many thanks to Klavs Klavsen and Mao Wenan for the detailed reports,
traces, and packetdrill test cases, which enabled us to root-cause
this issue and verify the fix.

- v1 -> v2:
 - In patch 2/3, changed an unclear comment in the pre-existing code
   in tcp_schedule_loss_probe() to be more clear (thanks to Eric Dumazet
   for suggesting we improve this).

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
