I discussed this issue with Ilpo just yesterday regarding 2.6.16, and the result of our discussion was that I reverted it. TCP being in some situations a bit more conservative than it should be isn't a big issue and not worth backporting with a risk of introducing a regression. I'd recommend you simply drop the two patches for 2.6.20. > Thanks! > Willy cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness.
