191tcp_frto_response - INTEGER
192 When F-RTO has detected that a TCP retransmission timeout was
193 spurious (i.e, the timeout would have been avoided had TCP set a
194 longer retransmission timeout), TCP has several options what to do
195 next. Possible values are:
196 0 Rate halving based; a smooth and conservative response,
197 results in halved cwnd and ssthresh after one RTT
198 1 Very conservative response; not recommended because even
199 though being valid, it interacts poorly with the rest of
200 Linux TCP, halves cwnd and ssthresh immediately
201 2 Aggressive response; undoes congestion control measures
202 that are now known to be unnecessary (ignoring the
203 possibility of a lost retransmission that would require
204 TCP to be more cautious), cwnd and ssthresh are restored
205 to the values prior timeout
