I think there is still a problem with the AIMD parameter update in HighSpeed TCP code. Line 125~138 of the code (net/ipv4/tcp_highspeed.c): /* Update AIMD parameters */ if (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) { while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd && ca->ai < HSTCP_AIMD_MAX - 1) ca->ai++; } else if (tp->snd_cwnd < hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) { while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd && ca->ai > 0) ca->ai--; In fact, the second part (decreasing ca->ai) never decreases since the while loop's inequality is in the reverse direction. This leads to unfairness with multiple flows (once a flow happens to enjoy a higher ca->ai, it keeps enjoying that even its cwnd decreases) Here is a tentative fix (I also added a comment, trying to keep the change clear): Acked-by: NStephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
