[72/82] net-2.6: SYN retransmits: Add new parameter to retransmits_timed_out()

[Greg KH]

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Damian Lukowski <damian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4d22f7d372f5769c6c0149e427ed6353e2dcfe61 ]

Fixes kernel Bugzilla Bug 18952

This patch adds a syn_set parameter to the retransmits_timed_out()
routine and updates its callers. If not set, TCP_RTO_MIN is taken
as the calculation basis as before. If set, TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT is
used instead, so that sysctl_syn_retries represents the actual
amount of SYN retransmissions in case no SYNACKs are received when
establishing a new connection.
