From 35089bb203f44e33b6bbb6c4de0b0708f9a48921 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2006 22:33:04 -0700 Subject: [TCP]: Add tcp_slow_start_after_idle sysctl. A lot of people have asked for a way to disable tcp_cwnd_restart(), and it seems reasonable to add a sysctl to do that. Signed-off-by: David S.
