2 * TCP Low Priority (TCP-LP)
3 *
4 * TCP Low Priority is a distributed algorithm whose goal is to utilize only
5 * the excess network bandwidth as compared to the ``fair share`` of
6 * bandwidth as targeted by TCP. Available from:
7 * http://www.ece.rice.edu/~akuzma/Doc/akuzma/TCP-LP.pdf
8 *
9 * Original Author:
10 * Aleksandar Kuzmanovic <akuzma@northwestern.edu>
11 *
12 * See http://www-ece.rice.edu/networks/TCP-LP/ for their implementation.
13 * As of 2.6.13, Linux supports pluggable congestion control algorithms.
14 * Due to the limitation of the API, we take the following changes from
15 * the original TCP-LP implementation:
16 * o We use newReno in most core CA handling. Only add some checking
17 * within cong_avoid.
18 * o Error correcting in remote HZ, therefore remote HZ will be keeped
19 * on checking and updating.
20 * o Handling calculation of One-Way-Delay (OWD) within rtt_sample, sicne
21 * OWD have a similar meaning as RTT. Also correct the buggy formular.
22 * o Handle reaction for Early Congestion Indication (ECI) within
23 * pkts_acked, as mentioned within pseudo code.
24 * o OWD is handled in relative format, where local time stamp will in
25 * tcp_time_stamp format.
26 *
27 * Port from 2.4.19 to 2.6.16 as module by:
28 * Wong Hoi Sing Edison <hswong3i@gmail.com>
29 * Hung Hing Lun <hlhung3i@gmail.com>
30 *
