Linux kernel source tree
861602b577
An issue was recently found where DCTCP SYN/ACK packets did not have the
ECT bit set in the L3 header. A bit of code review found that the recent
change referenced below had gone though and added a mask that prevented the
ECN bits from being populated in the L3 header.
This patch addresses that by rolling back the mask so that it is only
applied to the flags coming from the incoming TCP request instead of
applying it to the socket tos/tclass field. Doing this the ECT bits were
restored in the SYN/ACK packets in my testing.
One thing that is not addressed by this patch set is the fact that
tcp_reflect_tos appears to be incompatible with ECN based congestion
avoidance algorithms. At a minimum the feature should likely be documented
which it currently isn't.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
