====================
tcp: BBR congestion control algorithm
This patch series implements a new TCP congestion control algorithm:
BBR (Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT). A paper with a detailed
description of BBR will be published in ACM Queue, September-October
2016, as "BBR: Congestion-Based Congestion Control". BBR is widely
deployed in production at Google.
The patch series starts with a set of supporting infrastructure
changes, including a few that extend the congestion control
framework. The last patch adds BBR as a TCP congestion control
module. Please see individual patches for the details.
- v3 -> v4:
- Updated tcp_bbr.c in "tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control"
to use const to qualify all the constant parameters.
Thanks to Stephen Hemminger.
- In "tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control", remove the bbr_rate_kbps()
function, which had a 64-bit divide that would be problematic on some
architectures, and just use bbr_rate_bytes_per_sec() directly.
Thanks to Kenneth Klette Jonassen for suggesting this.
- In "tcp: switch back to proper tcp_skb_cb size check in tcp_init()",
switched from sizeof(skb->cb) to FIELD_SIZEOF.
Thanks to Lance Richardson for suggesting this.
- Updated "tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control" commit message with
performance data, more details about deployment at Google, and
another reminder to use fq with BBR.
- Updated tcp_bbr.c in "tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control"
to use MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL").
- v2 -> v3: fix another issue caught by build bots:
- adjust rate_sample struct initialization syntax to allow gcc-4.4 to compile
the "tcp: track data delivery rate for a TCP connection" patch; also
adjusted some similar syntax in "tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control"
- v1 -> v2: fix issues caught by build bots:
- fix "tcp: export data delivery rate" to use rate64 instead of rate,
so there is a 64-bit numerator for the do_div call
- fix conflicting definitions for minmax caused by
"tcp: use windowed min filter library for TCP min_rtt estimation"
with a new commit:
tcp: cdg: rename struct minmax in tcp_cdg.c to avoid a naming conflict
- fix warning about the use of __packed in
"tcp: track data delivery rate for a TCP connection",
which involves the addition of a new commit:
tcp: switch back to proper tcp_skb_cb size check in tcp_init()
