Hello Eric, We have applied that commit e358f4af19db ("tcp: tcp_fragment() should apply sane memory limits") as a hotpatch in production environment. We found that it will make tcp long connection reset during sending out packet when applying that commit. Our applications which in A/B test have suffered that and made them retransmit large data, and then caused retransmission storm and lower the performance and increase RT. Therefore we discontinued to apply this hotpatch in A/B test. After invesgation, we found this patch already fix this issue in stable. Before applying this patch, we have some questions: 1. This commit in stable hard coded a magic number 0x20000. I am wondering this value and if there any better solution. 2. Is there any known or unknown side effect? If any, we could test it in some suspicious scenarios before testing in prod env. Thanks.

tcp_fragment() might be called for skbs in the write queue. Memory limits might have been exceeded because tcp_sendmsg() only checks limits at full skb (64KB) boundaries. Therefore, we need to make sure tcp_fragment() wont punish applications that might have setup very low SO_SNDBUF values.
