Eric Dumazet 9a568de481 tcp: switch TCP TS option (RFC 7323) to 1ms clock
TCP Timestamps option is defined in RFC 7323

Traditionally on linux, it has been tied to the internal
'jiffies' variable, because it had been a cheap and good enough
generator.

For TCP flows on the Internet, 1 ms resolution would be much better
than 4ms or 10ms (HZ=250 or HZ=100 respectively)

For TCP flows in the DC, Google has used usec resolution for more
than two years with great success [1]

Receive size autotuning (DRS) is indeed more precise and converges
faster to optimal window size.

This patch converts tp->tcp_mstamp to a plain u64 value storing
a 1 usec TCP clock.

This choice will allow us to upstream the 1 usec TS option as
discussed in IETF 97.

/* Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT (BBR) congestion control
*
* BBR congestion control computes the sending rate based on the delivery
* rate (throughput) estimated from ACKs. In a nutshell:
*
* On each ACK, update our model of the network path:
* bottleneck_bandwidth = windowed_max(delivered / elapsed, 10 round trips)
* min_rtt = windowed_min(rtt, 10 seconds)
* pacing_rate = pacing_gain * bottleneck_bandwidth
* cwnd = max(cwnd_gain * bottleneck_bandwidth * min_rtt, 4)
*
* The core algorithm does not react directly to packet losses or delays,
* although BBR may adjust the size of next send per ACK when loss is
* observed, or adjust the sending rate if it estimates there is a
* traffic policer, in order to keep the drop rate reasonable.
*
* Here is a state transition diagram for BBR:
*
* |
* V
* +---> STARTUP ----+
* | | |
* | V |
* | DRAIN ----+
* | | |
* | V |
* +---> PROBE_BW ----+
* | ^ | |
* | | | |
* | +----+ |
* | |
* +---- PROBE_RTT <--+
*
* A BBR flow starts in STARTUP, and ramps up its sending rate quickly.
* When it estimates the pipe is full, it enters DRAIN to drain the queue.
* In steady state a BBR flow only uses PROBE_BW and PROBE_RTT.
* A long-lived BBR flow spends the vast majority of its time remaining
* (repeatedly) in PROBE_BW, fully probing and utilizing the pipe's bandwidth
* in a fair manner, with a small, bounded queue. *If* a flow has been
* continuously sending for the entire min_rtt window, and hasn't seen an RTT
* sample that matches or decreases its min_rtt estimate for 10 seconds, then
* it briefly enters PROBE_RTT to cut inflight to a minimum value to re-probe
* the path's two-way propagation delay (min_rtt). When exiting PROBE_RTT, if
* we estimated that we reached the full bw of the pipe then we enter PROBE_BW;
* otherwise we enter STARTUP to try to fill the pipe.
*
* BBR is described in detail in:
* "BBR: Congestion-Based Congestion Control",
* Neal Cardwell, Yuchung Cheng, C. Stephen Gunn, Soheil Hassas Yeganeh,
* Van Jacobson. ACM Queue, Vol. 14 No. 5, September-October 2016.
*
* There is a public e-mail list for discussing BBR development and testing:
* https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/bbr-dev
*
* NOTE: BBR might be used with the fq qdisc ("man tc-fq") with pacing enabled,
* otherwise TCP stack falls back to an internal pacing using one high
* resolution timer per TCP socket and may use more resources.

* BBR flows.
*
* The min_rtt filter window is 10 seconds. When the min_rtt estimate expires,
* we enter PROBE_RTT mode and cap the cwnd at bbr_cwnd_min_target=4 packets.
* After at least bbr_probe_rtt_mode_ms=200ms and at least one packet-timed
* round trip elapsed with that flight size <= 4, we leave PROBE_RTT mode and
* re-enter the previous mode. BBR uses 200ms to approximately bound the
* performance penalty of PROBE_RTT's cwnd capping to roughly 2% (200ms/10s).
*
* Note that flows need only pay 2% if they are busy sending over the last 10
* seconds. Interactive applications (e.g., Web, RPCs, video chunks) often have
* natural silences or low-rate periods within 10 seconds where the rate is low
* enough for long enough to drain its queue in the bottleneck. We pick up
* these min RTT measurements opportunistically with our min_rtt filter. :-)
