Subject: [PATCH net] tcp: make TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for zero window probes
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2021 11:13:06 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210122191306.GA99540@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

From: Enke Chen <enchen@paloaltonetworks.com>

The TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is checked by the 0-window probe timer. As the
timer has backoff with a max interval of about two minutes, the
actual timeout for TCP_USER_TIMEOUT can be off by up to two minutes.

In this patch the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is made more accurate by taking it
into account when computing the timer value for the 0-window probes.

This patch is similar to the one that made TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for
RTOs in commit b701a99e431d ("tcp: Add tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout()
helper to improve accuracy").
