This patch addresses a book-keeping issue in tcp_vegas.c. At present tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence numbers. A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple packets. When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd backoff). This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch. This patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance functionally unchanged. A secondary advantage of this modification is that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic is no longer necessary, simplifying the code. Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at: http://www.hamilton.ie/doug/vegaspatch/ Signed-off-by: Doug Leith <doug.leith@nuim.ie> Signed-off-by: David S.

|
* TCP Vegas congestion control
|
|
*
|
|
* This is based on the congestion detection/avoidance scheme described in
|
|
* Lawrence S. Brakmo and Larry L. Peterson.
|
|
* "TCP Vegas: End to end congestion avoidance on a global internet."
|
|
* IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, 13(8):1465--1480,
|
|
* October 1995. Available from:
|
|
* ftp://ftp.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/Papers/jsac.ps
|
|
*
|
|
* See http://www.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/ for their implementation.
|
|
* The main aspects that distinguish this implementation from the
|
|
* Arizona Vegas implementation are:
|
|
* o We do not change the loss detection or recovery mechanisms of
|
|
* Linux in any way. Linux already recovers from losses quite well,
|
|
* using fine-grained timers, NewReno, and FACK.
|
|
* o To avoid the performance penalty imposed by increasing cwnd
|
|
* only every-other RTT during slow start, we increase during
|
|
* every RTT during slow start, just like Reno.
|
|
* o Largely to allow continuous cwnd growth during slow start,
|
|
* we use the rate at which ACKs come back as the "actual"
|
|
* rate, rather than the rate at which data is sent.
|
|
* o To speed convergence to the right rate, we set the cwnd
|
|
* to achieve the right ("actual") rate when we exit slow start.
|
|
* o To filter out the noise caused by delayed ACKs, we use the
|
|
* minimum RTT sample observed during the last RTT to calculate
|
|
* the actual rate.
|
|
* o When the sender re-starts from idle, it waits until it has
|
|
* received ACKs for an entire flight of new data before making
|
|
* a cwnd adjustment decision. The original Vegas implementation
|
|
* assumed senders never went idle.
