* tcp: remove unused min_cwnd member of tcp_congestion_opsStanislav Fomichev2014-02-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Commit 684bad110757 "tcp: use PRR to reduce cwin in CWR state" removed all calls to min_cwnd, so we can safely remove it. Also, remove tcp_reno_min_cwnd because it was only used for min_cwnd. Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev <stfomichev@yandex-team.ru> Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* tcp: refactor F-RTOYuchung Cheng2013-03-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch series refactor the F-RTO feature (RFC4138/5682). This is to simplify the loss recovery processing. Existing F-RTO was developed during the experimental stage (RFC4138) and has many experimental features. It takes a separate code path from the traditional timeout processing by overloading CA_Disorder instead of using CA_Loss state. This complicates CA_Disorder state handling because it's also used for handling dubious ACKs and undos. While the algorithm in the RFC does not change the congestion control, the implementation intercepts congestion control in various places (e.g., frto_cwnd in tcp_ack()). The new code implements newer F-RTO RFC5682 using CA_Loss processing path. F-RTO becomes a small extension in the timeout processing and interfaces with congestion control and Eifel undo modules. It lets congestion control (module) determines how many to send independently. F-RTO only chooses what to send in order to detect spurious retranmission. If timeout is found spurious it invokes existing Eifel undo algorithms like DSACK or TCP timestamp based detection. The first patch removes all F-RTO code except the sysctl_tcp_frto is left for the new implementation. Since CA_EVENT_FRTO is removed, TCP westwood now computes ssthresh on regular timeout CA_EVENT_LOSS event.

* [TCP]: congestion control API pass RTT in microsecondsStephen Hemminger2007-07-311-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the API for the callback that is done after an ACK is received. It solves a couple of issues: * Some congestion controls want higher resolution value of RTT (controlled by TCP_CONG_RTT_SAMPLE flag). These don't really want a ktime, but all compute a RTT in microseconds. * Other congestion control could use RTT at jiffies resolution. To keep API consistent the units should be the same for both cases, just the resolution should change. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [TCP]: Minimum congestion window consolidation.Stephen Hemminger2006-06-171-11/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many of the TCP congestion methods all just use ssthresh as the minimum congestion window on decrease. Rather than duplicating the code, just have that be the default if that handle in the ops structure is not set. Minor behaviour change to TCP compound. It probably wants to use this (ssthresh) as lower bound, rather than ssthresh/2 because the latter causes undershoot on loss.

* [ICSK]: Move TCP congestion avoidance members to icskArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-291-27/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changeset basically moves tcp_sk()->{ca_ops,ca_state,etc} to inet_csk(), minimal renaming/moving done in this changeset to ease review. Most of it is just changes of struct tcp_sock * to struct sock * parameters. With this we move to a state closer to two interesting goals: 1. Generalisation of net/ipv4/tcp_diag.c, becoming inet_diag.c, being used for any INET transport protocol that has struct inet_hashinfo and are derived from struct inet_connection_sock. Keeps the userspace API, that will just not display DCCP sockets, while newer versions of tools can support DCCP. 2. INET generic transport pluggable Congestion Avoidance infrastructure, using the current TCP CA infrastructure with DCCP.
