From 6a438bbe68c7013a42d9c5aee5a40d7dafdbe6ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2005 17:14:59 -0800 Subject: [TCP]: speed up SACK processing Use "hints" to speed up the SACK processing. Various forms of this have been used by TCP developers (Web100, STCP, BIC) to avoid the 2x linear search of outstanding segments. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
