Title:
  Kernel 4.15.0-36 network performance regression

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Hardware:

  HP DL380 Gen 7 server with Gigabit interface.
  Ubuntu release: 18.04.1

  Since upgrading from 4.15.0-33 to 4.15.0-36, I have noticed a dramatic
  slowdown in TCP over IPv6.

  Set up: two servers, Server A in US on Ubuntu 18.04.1, Server B in
  Europe.

  Test: Sending 400MB over TCP from Server B to Server A.

  With 4.15.0-33 on Server A, the transfer is completed in 24 seconds,
  with average speed of 139 mbps.

  With 4.15.0-36 on Server A, the same amount of data is transferred in
  369 seconds, average speed less than 9 mbps.

  Looking at the result from tcpdump, I see that the there is a big
  difference in the TCP Window size.

  With 3.15-0.33 the TCP window size is around 3. But with
  3.15-0.36, the window size is only 734.

Just tested with the proposed build, the problem is fixed with the
proposed kernel 4.15.0-37 on my server.

Does this mean the problem is Ubuntu specific? When will the proposed
version be released? Do you still think it's necessary to test against
the mainline?

Also want to add that once we downgraded back to 4.15.0-33 the problem
went away. Rebooting back to 4.15.0-36 the problem reappears.
