Record the most recent RTT in RACK. It is often identical to the "ca_rtt_us" values in tcp_clean_rtx_queue. But when the packet has been retransmitted, RACK choses to believe the ACK is for the (latest) retransmitted packet if the RTT is over minimum RTT. This requires passing the arrival time of the most recent ACK to RACK routines. The timestamp is now recorded in the "ack_time" in tcp_sacktag_state during the ACK processing. This patch does not change the RACK algorithm itself. It only adds the RTT variable to prepare the next main patch.

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.
