[PATCH net-next] tcp: adjust tail loss probe timeout

2017-07-19 Thread Yuchung Cheng
This patch adjusts the timeout formula to schedule the TCP loss probe (TLP). The previous formula uses 2*SRTT or 1.5*RTT + DelayACKMax if only one packet is in flight. It keeps a lower bound of 10 msec which is too large for short RTT connections (e.g. within a data-center). The new formula = 2*RTT
