Previously TCP initial receive buffer is ~87KB by default and
the initial receive window is ~29KB (20 MSS). This patch changes
the two numbers to 128KB and ~64KB (rounding down to the multiples
of MSS) respectively. The patch also simplifies the calculations s.t.
the two numbers are directly controlled by sysctl tcp_rmem[1]:
1) Initial receiver buffer budget (sk_rcvbuf): while this should
be configured via sysctl tcp_rmem[1], previously tcp_fixup_rcvbuf()
always override and set a larger size when a new connection
establishes.
2) Initial receive window in SYN: previously it is set to 20
packets if MSS <= 1460. The number 20 was based on the initial
congestion window of 10: the receiver needs twice amount to
avoid being limited by the receive window upon out-of-order
delivery in the first window burst. But since this only
applies if the receiving MSS <= 1460, connection using large MTU
(e.g. to utilize receiver zero-copy) may be limited by the
receive window.
With this patch TCP memory configuration is more straight-forward and
more properly sized to modern high-speed networks by default. Several
popular stacks have been announcing 64KB rwin in SYNs as well.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
