Eric Dumazet 8078f8570e tcp: take care of zero tp->window_clamp in tcp_set_rcvlowat()
[ Upstream commit 21b29e74ffe5a6c851c235bb80bf5ee26292c67b ]

Some applications (like selftests/net/tcp_mmap.c) call SO_RCVLOWAT
on their listener, before accept().

This has an unfortunate effect on wscale selection in
tcp_select_initial_window() during 3WHS.

For instance, tcp_mmap was negotiating wscale 4, regardless
of tcp_rmem[2] and sysctl_rmem_max.

Do not change tp->window_clamp if it is zero
or bigger than our computed value.

Zero value is special, it allows tcp_select_initial_window()
to enable autotuning.

Note that SO_RCVLOWAT use on listener is probably not wise,
because tp->scaling_ratio has a default value, possibly wrong.

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.
