From: Arjun Roy <arjun...@google.com> With SO_RCVLOWAT, under memory pressure, it is possible to enter a state where:
1. We have not received enough bytes to satisfy SO_RCVLOWAT. 2. We have not entered buffer pressure (see tcp_rmem_pressure()). 3. But, we do not have enough buffer space to accept more packets. In this case, we advertise 0 rwnd (due to #3) but the application does not drain the receive queue (no wakeup because of #1 and #2) so the flow stalls. Modify the heuristic for SO_RCVLOWAT so that, if we are advertising rwnd<=rcv_mss, force a wakeup to prevent a stall. Without this patch, setting tcp_rmem to 6143 and disabling TCP autotune causes a stalled flow. With this patch, no stall occurs. This is with RPC-style traffic with large messages.
