Subject: [PATCHv5 net-next 4/4] ipv4: Documenting two sysctls for tcp PMTU probe
Date: Fri,  6 Mar 2015 11:18:25 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1425611905-28503-5-git-send-email-fan.du@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1425611905-28503-1-git-send-email-fan.du@intel.com>

Namely tcp_probe_interval to control how often to restart
a probe. And tcp_probe_threshold to control when stop the
probing in respect to the width of search range in bytes
