tcp: Prevent low rmem stalls with SO_RCVLOWAT.
[ Upstream commit 435ccfa ]
With SO_RCVLOWAT, under memory pressure,
it is possible to enter a state where:
1. We have not received enough bytes to satisfy SO_RCVLOWAT.
2. We have not entered buffer pressure (see tcp_rmem_pressure()).
3. But, we do not have enough buffer space to accept more packets.
In this case, we advertise 0 rwnd (due to #3) but the application does
not drain the receive queue (no wakeup because of #1 and #2) so the
flow stalls.
Modify the heuristic for SO_RCVLOWAT so that, if we are advertising
rwnd<=rcv_mss, force a wakeup to prevent a stall.
Without this patch, setting tcp_rmem to 6143 and disabling TCP
autotune causes a stalled flow. With this patch, no stall occurs. This
is with RPC-style traffic with large messages.
Fixes: 03f45c8 ("tcp: avoid extra wakeups for SO_RCVLOWAT users")
