+Subject: [PATCH] tcp: allow drivers to tweak TSQ logic
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+I had many reports that TSQ logic breaks wifi aggregation.
+
+Current logic is to allow up to 1 ms of bytes to be queued into qdisc
+and drivers queues.
+
+But Wifi aggregation needs a bigger budget to allow bigger rates to
+be discovered by various TCP Congestion Controls algorithms.
+
+This patch adds an extra socket field, allowing wifi drivers to select
+another log scale to derive TCP Small Queue credit from current pacing
+rate.
+
+Initial value is 10, meaning that this patch does not change current
+behavior.
+
+We expect wifi drivers to set this field to smaller values (tests have
+been done with values from 6 to 9)
+
+They would have to use following template :
+
+if (skb->sk && skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift != MY_PACING_SHIFT)
+ skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift = MY_PACING_SHIFT;
