tcp: evaluate packet losses upon RTT change
RACK skips an ACK unless it advances the most recently delivered TX timestamp (rack.mstamp). Since RACK also uses the most recent RTT to decide if a packet is lost, RACK should still run the loss detection whenever the most recent RTT changes. For example, an ACK that does not advance the timestamp but triggers the cwnd undo due to reordering, would then use the most recent (higher) RTT measurement to detect further losses.

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.
