From 05bb1fad1cde025a864a90cfeb98dcbefe78a44a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2007 22:10:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [TCP]: Allow minimum RTO to be configurable via routing metrics. Cell phone networks do link layer retransmissions and other things that cause unnecessary timeout retransmits. So allow the minimum RTO to be inflated per-route to deal with this.
