* [TCP] H-TCP: fix integer overflowGavin McCullagh2006-10-26
| | | | | | | | | When using H-TCP with a single flow on a 500Mbit connection (or less actually), alpha can exceed 65000, so alpha needs to be a u32.

* [TCP]: Minimum congestion window consolidation.Stephen Hemminger2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [TCP] H-TCP: Better time accountingBaruch Even2006-03-21
| | | | | | | | Instead of estimating the time since the last congestion event, count it directly. Signed-off-by: Baruch Even <baruch@ev-en.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [TCP] H-TCP: Account for delayed-ACKsBaruch Even2006-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | Account for delayed-ACKs in H-TCP. Delayed-ACKs cause H-TCP to be less aggressive than its design calls for. It is especially true when the receiver is a Linux machine where the average delayed ack is over 3 packets with values of 7 not unheard of.

* [TCP] H-TCP: Use msecs_to_jiffiesBaruch Even2006-03-21
| | | | | | | | | Use functions to calculate jiffies from milliseconds and not the old, crude method of dividing HZ by a value. Ensures more accurate values even in the face of strange HZ values. Signed-off-By: Baruch Even <baruch@ev-en.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [TCP] H-TCP: Fix accountingBaruch Even2006-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the accounting in H-TCP, the ccount variable is also adjusted a few lines above this one. This line was not supposed to be there and wasn't there in the patches originally submitted, the four patches submitted were merged to one and in that merge the bug was introduced.

* [TCP]: fix congestion window update when using TSO deferalStephen Hemminger2005-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful. On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and 50Mbits/sec without TSO. The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window unless we have filled, as per RFC2861. This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full with something smarter that accounts for TSO.

* [ICSK]: Move TCP congestion avoidance members to icskArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [TCP]: Add H-TCP congestion control module.Baruch Even2005-06-23
H-TCP is a congestion control algorithm developed at the Hamilton Institute, by Douglas Leith and Robert Shorten. It is extending the standard Reno algorithm with mode switching is thus a relatively simple modification. H-TCP is defined in a layered manner as it is still a research platform. The basic form includes the modification of beta according to the ratio of maxRTT to min RTT and the alpha=2*factor*(1-beta) relation, where factor is dependant on the time since last congestion. The other layers improve convergence by adding appropriate factors to alpha. The following patch implements the H-TCP algorithm in it's basic form.
