tcp: invalidate rate samples during SACK reneging
Mark tcp_sock during a SACK reneging event and invalidate rate samples
while marked. Such rate samples may overestimate bw by including packets
that were SACKed before reneging.
< ack 6001 win 10000 sack 7001:38001
< ack 7001 win 0 sack 8001:38001 // Reneg detected
> seq 7001:8001 // RTO, SACK cleared.
< ack 38001 win 10000
In above example the rate sample taken after the last ack will count
7001-38001 as delivered while the actual delivery rate likely could
be much lower i.e. 7001-8001.
This patch adds a new field tcp_sock.sack_reneg and marks it when we
declare SACK reneging and entering TCP_CA_Loss, and unmarks it after
the last rate sample was taken before moving back to TCP_CA_Open. This
patch also invalidates rate samples taken while tcp_sock.is_sack_reneg
is set.
