David Howells eeaedc5449 rxrpc: Implement path-MTU probing using padded PING ACKs (RFC8899)
Implement path-MTU probing (along the lines of RFC8899) by padding some of
the PING ACKs we send.  PING ACKs get their own individual responses quite
apart from the acking of data (though, as ACKs, they fulfil that role
also).

The probing concentrates on packet sizes that correspond how many
subpackets can be stuffed inside a jumbo packet as jumbo DATA packets are
just aggregations of individual DATA packets and can be split easily for
retransmission purposes.

If we want to perform probing, we advertise this by setting the maximum
number of jumbo subpackets to 0 in the ack trailer when we send an ACK and
see if the peer is also advertising the service.  This is interpreted by
non-supporting Rx stacks as an indication that jumbo packets aren't
supported.

The MTU sizes advertised in the ACK trailer AF_RXRPC transmits are pegged
at a maximum of 1444 unless pmtud is supported by both sides.

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 reStructuredText 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.
