Previously receiver buffer auto-tuning starts after receiving one advertised window amount of data.After the initial receiver buffer was raised by commit a337531b942b ("tcp: up initial rmem to 128KB and SYN rwin to around 64KB"),the receiver buffer may take too long for TCP autotuning to start raising the receiver buffer size. commit 041a14d26715 ("tcp: start receiver buffer autotuning sooner") tried to decrease the threshold at which TCP auto-tuning starts but it's doesn't work well in some environments where the receiver has large MTU (9001) especially with high RTT connections as in these environments rcvq_space.space will be the same as rcv_wnd so TCP autotuning will never start because sender can't send more than rcv_wnd size in one round trip. To address this issue this patch is decreasing the initial rcvq_space.space so TCP autotuning kicks in whenever the sender is able to send more than 5360 bytes in one round trip regardless the receiver's configured MTU.
Fixes: a337531b942b ("tcp: up initial rmem to 128KB and SYN rwin to around 64KB") Fixes: 041a14d26715 ("tcp: start receiver buffer autotuning sooner")
