2026-04-08	rxrpc: Fix rack timer warning to report unexpected mode	Alok Tiwari
	rxrpc_rack_timer_expired() clears call->rack_timer_mode to OFF before the switch. The default case warning therefore always prints OFF and doesn't identify the unexpected timer mode. Log the saved mode value instead so the warning reports the actual unexpected rack timer mode.

2024-12-09	rxrpc: Implement RACK/TLP to deal with transmission stalls [RFC8985]	David Howells
	When an rxrpc call is in its transmission phase and is sending a lot of packets, stalls occasionally occur that cause severe performance degradation (eg. increasing the transmission time for a 256MiB payload from 0.7s to 2.5s over a 10G link). rxrpc already implements TCP-style congestion control [RFC5681] and this helps mitigate the effects, but occasionally we're missing a time event that deals with a missing ACK, leading to a stall until the RTO expires. Fix this by implementing RACK/TLP in rxrpc.
