In the current net-2.6 kernel, handling FLAG_DSACKING_ACK is broken.
The flag is cleared to 1 just after FLAG_DSACKING_ACK is set.

        if (found_dup_sack)
                flag |= FLAG_DSACKING_ACK;
        :
        flag = 1;

To fix it, this patch introduces a part of the tcp_sacktag_state patch:
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=119210560431519&w=2

Do you plan to apply the tcp_sacktag_state patch?
Or please apply this patch.
