X-Git-Tag: v2.6.13-rc7~55^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=89ebd197eb2cd31d6187db344d5117064e19fdde;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git [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.
