This patch adds a new queue (list) that tracks the sent but not yet acked or SACKed skbs for a TCP connection. The list is chronologically ordered by skb->skb_mstamp (the head is the oldest sent skb). This list will be used to optimize TCP Rack recovery, which checks an skb's timestamp to judge if it has been lost and needs to be retransmitted. Since TCP write queue is ordered by sequence instead of sent time, RACK has to scan over the write queue to catch all eligible packets to detect lost retransmission, and iterates through SACKed skbs repeatedly. Special cares for rare events: 1. TCP repair fakes skb transmission so the send queue needs adjusted 2. SACK reneging would require re-inserting SACKed skbs into the send queue. For now I believe it's not worth the complexity to make RACK work perfectly on SACK reneging, so we do nothing here. 3. Fast Open: currently for non-TFO, send-queue correctly queues the pure SYN packet. For TFO which queues a pure SYN and then a data packet, send-queue only queues the data packet but not the pure SYN due to the structure of TFO code. This is okay because the SYN receiver would never respond with a SACK on a missing SYN (i.e. SYN is never fast-retransmitted by SACK/RACK). In order to not grow sk_buff, we use an union for the new list and _skb_refdst/destructor fields. This is a bit complicated because we need to make sure _skb_refdst and destructor are properly zeroed before skb is cloned/copied at transmit, and before being freed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
