2006-03-21[TCP]: sysctl to allow TCP window > 32767 sans wscaleRick Jones1-0/+7
Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of the TCP header and would get confused. Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default now. There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old stacks Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-01-09[PATCH] update bonding.txt to not show ip address on slavesEric Paris1-2/+0
ifenslave, as of abi version 2, does not set the ip address on the slave interfaces. The documentation example however still shows that the ensalved interfaces should have the same IP as the master. The patch simply removes the lines from the example which should no longer appear.

2006-01-04[IPV4]: Safer reassemblyHerbert Xu1-0/+23
Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch for 2.6.16. (The original patch is here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2 and my only contribution is to have tested it.) This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.

2005-11-11[TCP]: Appropriate Byte Count supportStephen Hemminger1-0/+5
This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control. The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little change after leaving slow start.
