[ Upstream commit 05f76b2d634e65ab34472802d9b142ea9e03f74e ] tp->scaling_ratio is not updated based on skb->len/skb->truesize once SO_RCVBUF is set leading to the maximum window scaling to be 25% of rcvbuf after commitdfa2f04833("tcp: get rid of sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale") and 50% of rcvbuf after commit 697a6c8cec03 ("tcp: increase the default TCP scaling ratio"). 50% tries to emulate the behavior of older kernels using sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale with default value. Systems which were using a different values of sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale in older kernels ended up seeing reduced download speeds in certain cases as covered in https://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2024/05/15/13 While the sysctl scheme is no longer acceptable, the value of 50% is a bit conservative when the skb->len/skb->truesize ratio is later determined to be ~0.66. Applications not specifying SO_RCVBUF update the window scaling and the receiver buffer every time data is copied to userspace. This computation is now used for applications setting SO_RCVBUF to update the maximum window scaling while ensuring that the receive buffer is within the application specified limit.

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.
