[lwip-devel] [task #14128] Appropriate byte counting/stretch ACK support

[Joel Cunningham]

Follow-up Comment #9, task #14128 (project lwip):

Simon,

Thanks for the reminder, my mistake.  I'll just stick to providing links

Ambroz,

>From my reading of the code, the Linux implementation specifically chose to
not limit how many stretch ACK's it accepts for cwnd adjustment.  The comment
even mentions that ABC recommends N * 2, while they support N * N.  So yes
they are not following the guidance in both RFC 5681 and 3465, but it is
intentional.  I may do some more digging in the commit history to see if there
is more justification for not following the RFCs
