When TCP receives an out-of-order packet, it immediately sends a SACK packet, generating network load but also forcing the receiver to send 1-MSS pathological packets, increasing its RTX queue length/depth, and thus processing time. Wifi networks suffer from this aggressive behavior, but generally speaking, all these SACK packets add fuel to the fire when networks are under congestion. This patch adds a high resolution timer and tp->compressed_ack counter. Instead of sending a SACK, we program this timer with a small delay, based on RTT and capped to 1 ms : delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms) If subsequent SACKs need to be sent while the timer has not yet expired, we simply increment tp->compressed_ack. When timer expires, a SACK is sent with the latest information. Whenever an ACK is sent (if data is sent, or if in-order data is received) timer is canceled. Note that tcp_sack_new_ofo_skb() is able to force a SACK to be sent if the sack blocks need to be shuffled, even if the timer has not expired. A new SNMP counter is added in the following patch. Two other patches add sysctls to allow changing the 1,000,000 and 44 values that this commit hard-coded.
