New Revision: 210666
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/210666

Log:
  Fix a bug in syncache where the initial CWND for new incoming connections
  was limited to one segment under the faulty assumption of a retransmit.
  Due to this the opportunity to initialize the increased congestion window
  according to RFC3390 was missed.
  
  Support for RFC3465 introduced in r187289 uncovered the bug as the ACK
  to SYN/ACK no longer caused snd_cwnd increase by MSS (actually, this
  increase shouldn't happen as it's explicitly forbidden by RFC3390, but
  it's another issue).  Snd_cwnd remains really small (1*MSS + 1) and this
  causes really bad interaction with delayed acks on other side.
  
  The variable name sc_rxmits is a bit misleading as it counts all transmits,
  not just retransmits.
