Hi!
Sorry Alexey for keeping it quiet but I got pulled away to some other duties for
the past 3 weeks.
Anyway, the similar problem I was reporting has not been seen since that last
incident a month ago. We did change, on our application side, some of the
parameters (aka SO_RCVBUF) that did not need to be set in the first place (bug
on our side).
This plus your patch seem to have resolve the issues we were having. So, it's
all good !
Thanks again..
Guillaume.

Hello!
Anyway, ignoring this puzzle, the following patch for 2.4 should help.

}
I'm very happy to report that the above patch, applied to 2.6.12.6, seems
to have cured the TCP window problem we were experiencing.
Good. I think the patch is to be applied to all mainstream kernels.
The only obstacle is the second report by Guillaume Autran <[email protected]>,
which has some allied characteristics, but after analysis it is something
impossible, read, cryptic and severe bug. :-( I did not get a responce
to the last query, so the investigation stalled.
Alexey
