This patch replaces an almost identical replication of code: large parts of dccp_parse_options() re-appeared as ccid2_ackvector() in ccid2.c. Apart from the duplication, this caused two more problems: 1. CCIDs should not need to be concerned with parsing header options; 2. one can not assume that Ack Vectors appear as a contiguous area within an skb, it is legal to insert other options and/or padding in between. The current code would throw an error and stop reading in such a case. Since Ack Vectors provide CCID-specific information, they are now processed by the CCID directly, separating this functionality from the main DCCP code.

This patch brings the Ack Vector interface up to date. Its main purpose is to lay the basis for the subsequent patches of this set, which will use the new data structure fields and routines. There are no real algorithmic changes, rather an adaptation: (1) Replaced the static Ack Vector size (2) with a #define so that it can be adapted (with low loss / Ack Ratio, a value of 1 works, so 2 seems to be sufficient for the moment) and added a solution so that computing the ECN nonce will continue to work - even with larger Ack Vectors. (2) Replaced the #defines for Ack Vector states with a complete enum. (3) Replaced #defines to compute Ack Vector length and state with general purpose routines (inlines), and updated code to use these. (4) Added a `tail' field (conversion to circular buffer in subsequent patch). (5) Updated the (outdated) documentation for Ack Vector struct. (6) All sequence number containers now trimmed to 48 bits. (7) Removal of unused bits: * removed dccpav_ack_nonce from struct dccp_ackvec, since this is already redundantly stored in the `dccpavr_ack_nonce' (of Ack Vector record); * removed Elapsed Time for Ack Vectors (it was nowhere used); * replaced semantics of dccpavr_sent_len with dccpavr_ack_runlen, since the code needs to be able to remember the old run length; * reduced the de-/allocation routines (redundant / duplicate tests).

This removes the argument `more' from ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent, since it was nowhere used in the entire code. (Btw, this argument was not even used in the original KAME code where the function initially came from; compare the variable moreToSend in the freebsd61-dccp-kame-28.08.2006.patch kept by Emmanuel Lochin.)

Using a fixed RTO_MIN of 0.2 seconds was found to cause problems for CCID-2 over 802.11g: at least once per session there was a spurious timeout. It helped to then increase the the value of RTO_MIN over this link. Since the problem is the same as in TCP, this patch makes the solution from commit "05bb1fad" "[TCP]: Allow minimum RTO to be configurable via routing metrics." available to DCCP. This avoids reinventing the wheel, so that e.g. the following works in the expected way now also for CCID-2: > ip route change 10.0.0.2 rto_min 800 dev ath0 Luckily this useful rto_min function was recently moved to net/tcp.h, which simplifies sharing code originating from TCP.

This removes the wrappers around the sk timer functions, since not much is gained from using them: the BUG_ON in start_rto_timer will never trigger since that function is called only if: * the RTO timer expires (rto_expire, and then timer_pending() is false); * in tx_packet_sent only if !timer_pending() (BUG_ON is redundant here); * previously in new_ack, after stopping the timer (timer_pending() false). Removing the wrappers also clears the way for eventually replacing the RTO timer with the icsk-retransmission-timer, as it is already part of the DCCP socket.

Since CCID-2 is de facto a mini implementation of TCP, it makes sense to share as much code as possible. Hence this patch aligns CCID-2 timestamping with TCP timestamping. This also halves the space consumption (on 64-bit systems). The necessary include file <net/tcp.h> is already included by way of net/dccp.h. Redundant includes have been removed.

The current CCID-2 RTT estimator code is in parts broken and lags behind the suggestions in RFC2988 of using scaled variants for SRTT/RTTVAR. That code is replaced by the present patch, which reuses the Linux TCP RTT estimator code. Further details: ---------------- 1. The minimum RTO of previously one second has been replaced with TCP's, since RFC4341, sec. 5 says that the minimum of 1 sec. (suggested in RFC2988, 2.4) is not necessary. Instead, the TCP_RTO_MIN is used, which agrees with DCCP's concept of a default RTT (RFC 4340, 3.4). 2. The maximum RTO has been set to DCCP_RTO_MAX (64 sec), which agrees with RFC2988, (2.5). 3. De-inlined the function ccid2_new_ack(). 4. Added a FIXME: the RTT is sampled several times per Ack Vector, which will give the wrong estimate. It should be replaced with one sample per Ack. However, at the moment this can not be resolved easily, since - it depends on TX history code (which also needs some work), - the cleanest solution is not to use the `sent' time at all (saves 4 bytes per entry) and use DCCP timestamps / elapsed time to estimated the RTT, which however is non-trivial to get right (but needs to be done). Reasons for reusing the Linux TCP estimator algorithm: ------------------------------------------------------ Some time was spent to find a better alternative, using basic RFC2988 as a first step. Further analysis and experimentation showed that the Linux TCP RTO estimator is superior to a basic RFC2988 implementation. A summary is on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/ccid2/rto_estimator/ In addition, this estimator fared well in a recent empirical evaluation: Rewaskar, Sushant, Jasleen Kaur and F. Donelson Smith. A Performance Study of Loss Detection/Recovery in Real-world TCP Implementations. Proceedings of 15th IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP-07), 2007. Thus there is significant benefit in reusing the existing TCP code. Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This removes the dec_pipe function and improves the way the RTO timer is rearmed when a new acknowledgment comes in. Details and justification for removal: -------------------------------------- 1) The BUG_ON in dec_pipe is never triggered: pipe is only decremented for TX history entries between tail and head, for which it had previously been incremented in tx_packet_sent; and it is not decremented twice for the same entry, since it is - either decremented when a corresponding Ack Vector cell in state 0 or 1 was received (and then ccid2s_acked==1), - or it is decremented when ccid2s_acked==0, as part of the loss detection in tx_packet_recv (and hence it can not have been decremented earlier). 2) Restarting the RTO timer happens for every single entry in each Ack Vector parsed by tx_packet_recv (according to RFC 4340, 11.4 this can happen up to 16192 times per Ack Vector). 3) The RTO timer should not be restarted when all outstanding data has been acknowledged. This is currently done similar to (2), in dec_pipe, when pipe has reached 0. The patch onsolidates the code which rearms the RTO timer, combining the segments from new_ack and dec_pipe. As a result, the code becomes clearer (compare with tcp_rearm_rto()). Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This removes the ccid2_hc_tx_check_sanity function: it is redundant. Details: The tx_check_sanity function performs three tests: 1) it checks that the circular TX list is sorted - in ascending order of sequence number (ccid2s_seq) - and time (ccid2s_sent), - in the direction from `tail' (hctx_seqt) to `head' (hctx_seqh); 2) it ensures that the entire list has the length seqbufc * CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN; 3) it ensures that pipe equals the number of packets that were not marked `acked' (ccid2s_acked) between `tail' and `head'. The following argues that each of these tests is redundant, this can be verified by going through the code. (1) is not necessary, since both time and GSS increase from one packet to the next, so that subsequent insertions in tx_packet_sent (which advance the `head' pointer) will be in ascending order of time and sequence number. In (2), the length of the list is always equal to seqbufc times CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN (set to 1024) unless allocation caused an earlier failure, because: * at initialisation (tx_init), there is one chunk of size 1024 and seqbufc=1; * subsequent calls to tx_alloc_seq take place whenever head->next == tail in tx_packet_sent; then a new chunk of size 1024 is inserted between head and tail, and seqbufc is incremented by one. To show that (3) is redundant requires looking at two cases. The `pipe' variable of the TX socket is incremented only in tx_packet_sent, and decremented in tx_packet_recv. When head == tail (TX history empty) then pipe should be 0, which is the case directly after initialisation and after a retransmission timeout has occurred (ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire). The first case involves parsing Ack Vectors for packets recorded in the live portion of the buffer, between tail and head. For each packet marked by the receiver as received (state 0) or ECN-marked (state 1), pipe is decremented by one, so for all such packets the BUG_ON in tx_check_sanity will not trigger. The second case is the loss detection in the second half of tx_packet_recv, below the comment "Check for NUMDUPACK". The first while-loop here ensures that the sequence number of `seqp' is either above or equal to `high_ack', or otherwise equal to the highest sequence number sent so far (of the entry head->prev, as head points to the next unsent entry). The next while-loop ("while (1)") counts the number of acked packets starting from that position of seqp, going backwards in the direction from head->prev to tail. If NUMDUPACK=3 such packets were counted within this loop, `seqp' points to the last acknowledged packet of these, and the "if (done == NUMDUPACK)" block is entered next. The while-loop contained within that block in turn traverses the list backwards, from head to tail; the position of `seqp' is saved in the variable `last_acked'. For each packet not marked as `acked', a congestion event is triggered within the loop, and pipe is decremented. The loop terminates when `seqp' has reached `tail', whereupon tail is set to the position previously stored in `last_acked'. Thus, between `last_acked' and the previous position of `tail', - pipe has been decremented earlier if the packet was marked as state 0 or 1; - pipe was decremented if the packet was not marked as acked. That is, pipe has been decremented by the number of packets between `last_acked' and the previous position of `tail'. As a consequence, pipe now again reflects the number of packets which have not (yet) been acked between the new position of tail (at `last_acked') and head->prev, or 0 if head==tail. The result is that the BUG_ON condition in check_sanity will also not be triggered, hence the test (3) is also redundant.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

This patch starts a less problematic naming convention for CCID structs. The old naming convention used 'hc{tx,rx}->ccid?hc{tx,rx}->...' as recurring prefixes, which made the code * hard to write (not easy to fit into 80 characters); * hard to read (most of the space is occupied by prefixes). The new naming scheme: * struct entries for the TX socket are prefixed by 'tx_'; * and those for the RX socket are prefixed by 'rx_'. The identifiers then remain distinguishable when grep-ing through the tree: (a) RX/TX sockets are distinguished by the naming scheme, (b) individual CCIDs are distinguished by filename (ccid{2,3,4}.{c,h}).

Based on Arnaldo's earlier patch, this patch integrates the standardised CCID congestion control plugins (CCID-2 and CCID-3) of DCCP with dccp.ko: * enables a faster connection path by eliminating the need to always go through the CCID registration lock; * updates the implementation to use only a single array whose size equals the number of configured CCIDs instead of the maximum (256); * since the CCIDs are now fixed array elements, synchronization is no longer needed, simplifying use and implementation. CCID-2 is suggested as minimum for a basic DCCP implementation (RFC 4340, 10); CCID-3 is a standards-track CCID supported by RFC 4342 and RFC 5348.

This removes the ccid2_hc_tx_check_sanity function: it is redundant. Details: ======== The tx_check_sanity function performs three tests: 1) it checks that the circular TX list is sorted - in ascending order of sequence number (ccid2s_seq) - and time (ccid2s_sent), - in the direction from `tail' (hctx_seqt) to `head' (hctx_seqh); 2) it ensures that the entire list has the length seqbufc * CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN; 3) it ensures that pipe equals the number of packets that were not marked `acked' (ccid2s_acked) between `tail' and `head'. The following argues that each of these tests is redundant, this can be verified by going through the code. (1) is not necessary, since both time and GSS increase from one packet to the next, so that subsequent insertions in tx_packet_sent (which advance the `head' pointer) will be in ascending order of time and sequence number. In (2), the length of the list is always equal to seqbufc times CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN (set to 1024) unless allocation caused an earlier failure, because: * at initialisation (tx_init), there is one chunk of size 1024 and seqbufc=1; * subsequent calls to tx_alloc_seq take place whenever head->next == tail in tx_packet_sent; then a new chunk of size 1024 is inserted between head and tail, and seqbufc is incremented by one. To show that (3) is redundant requires looking at two cases. The `pipe' variable of the TX socket is incremented only in tx_packet_sent, and decremented in tx_packet_recv. When head == tail (TX history empty) then pipe should be 0, which is the case directly after initialisation and after a retransmission timeout has occurred (ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire). The first case involves parsing Ack Vectors for packets recorded in the live portion of the buffer, between tail and head. For each packet marked by the receiver as received (state 0) or ECN-marked (state 1), pipe is decremented by one, so for all such packets the BUG_ON in tx_check_sanity will not trigger. The second case is the loss detection in the second half of tx_packet_recv, below the comment "Check for NUMDUPACK". The first while-loop here ensures that the sequence number of `seqp' is either above or equal to `high_ack', or otherwise equal to the highest sequence number sent so far (of the entry head->prev, as head points to the next unsent entry). The next while-loop ("while (1)") counts the number of acked packets starting from that position of seqp, going backwards in the direction from head->prev to tail. If NUMDUPACK=3 such packets were counted within this loop, `seqp' points to the last acknowledged packet of these, and the "if (done == NUMDUPACK)" block is entered next. The while-loop contained within that block in turn traverses the list backwards, from head to tail; the position of `seqp' is saved in the variable `last_acked'. For each packet not marked as `acked', a congestion event is triggered within the loop, and pipe is decremented. The loop terminates when `seqp' has reached `tail', whereupon tail is set to the position previously stored in `last_acked'. Thus, between `last_acked' and the previous position of `tail', - pipe has been decremented earlier if the packet was marked as state 0 or 1; - pipe was decremented if the packet was not marked as acked. That is, pipe has been decremented by the number of packets between `last_acked' and the previous position of `tail'. As a consequence, pipe now again reflects the number of packets which have not (yet) been acked between the new position of tail (at `last_acked') and head->prev, or 0 if head==tail. The result is that the BUG_ON condition in check_sanity will also not be triggered, hence the test (3) is also redundant. Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>

This patch replaces an almost identical replication of code: large parts of dccp_parse_options() re-appeared as ccid2_ackvector() in ccid2.c. Apart from the duplication, this caused two more problems: 1. CCIDs should not need to be concerned with parsing header options; 2. one can not assume that Ack Vectors appear as a contiguous area within an skb, it is legal to insert other options and/or padding in between. The current code would throw an error and stop reading in such a case. The patch provides a new data structure and associated list housekeeping. Only small changes were necessary to integrate with CCID-2: data structure initialisation, adapt list traversal routine, and add call to the provided cleanup routine. The latter also lead to fixing the following BUG: CCID-2 so far ignored Ack Vectors on all packets other than Ack/DataAck, which is incorrect, since Ack Vectors can be present on any packet that has an Ack field. Details: -------- * received Ack Vectors are parsed by dccp_parse_options() alone, which passes the result on to the CCID-specific routine ccid_hc_tx_parse_options(); * CCIDs interested in using/decoding Ack Vector information will add code to fetch parsed Ack Vectors via this interface; * a data structure, `struct dccp_ackvec_parsed' is provided as interface; * this structure arranges Ack Vectors of the same skb into a FIFO order; * a doubly-linked list is used to keep the required FIFO code small.

This patch brings the Ack Vector interface up to date. Its main purpose is to lay the basis for the subsequent patches of this set, which will use the new data structure fields and routines. There are no real algorithmic changes, rather an adaptation: (1) Replaced the static Ack Vector size (2) with a #define so that it can be adapted (with low loss / Ack Ratio, a value of 1 works, so 2 seems to be sufficient for the moment) and added a solution so that computing the ECN nonce will continue to work - even with larger Ack Vectors. (2) Replaced the #defines for Ack Vector states with a complete enum. (3) Replaced #defines to compute Ack Vector length and state with general purpose routines (inlines), and updated code to use these. (4) Added a `tail' field (conversion to circular buffer in subsequent patch). (5) Updated the (outdated) documentation for Ack Vector struct. (6) All sequence number containers now trimmed to 48 bits. (7) Removal of unused bits: * removed dccpav_ack_nonce from struct dccp_ackvec, since this is already redundantly stored in the `dccpavr_ack_nonce' (of Ack Vector record); * removed Elapsed Time for Ack Vectors (it was nowhere used); * replaced semantics of dccpavr_sent_len with dccpavr_ack_runlen, since the code needs to be able to remember the old run length; * reduced the de-/allocation routines (redundant / duplicate tests). Justification for removing Elapsed Time information [can be removed]: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The Elapsed Time information for Ack Vectors was nowhere used in the code. 2. DCCP does not implement rate-based pacing of acknowledgments. The only recommendation for always including Elapsed Time is in section 11.3 of RFC 4340: "Receivers that rate-pace acknowledgements SHOULD [...] include Elapsed Time options". But such is not the case here. 3. It does not really improve estimation accuracy. The Elapsed Time field only records the time between the arrival of the last acknowledgeable packet and the time the Ack Vector is sent out. Since Linux does not (yet) implement delayed Acks, the time difference will typically be small, since often the arrival of a data packet triggers sending feedback at the HC-receiver. Justification for changes in de-/allocation routines [can be removed]: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * INIT_LIST_HEAD in dccp_ackvec_record_new was redundant, since the list pointers were later overwritten when the node was added via list_add(); * dccp_ackvec_record_new() was called in a single place only; * calls to list_del_init() before calling dccp_ackvec_record_delete() were redundant, since subsequently the entire element was k-freed; * since all calls to dccp_ackvec_record_delete() were preceded to a call to list_del_init(), the WARN_ON test would never evaluate to true; * since all calls to dccp_ackvec_record_delete() were made from within list_for_each_entry_safe(), the test for avr == NULL was redundant; * list_empty() in ackvec_free was redundant, since the same condition is embedded in the loop condition of the subsequent list_for_each_entry_safe().

This removes the argument `more' from ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent, since it was nowhere used in the entire code. (Anecdotally, this argument was not even used in the original KAME code where the function originally came from; compare the variable moreToSend in the freebsd61-dccp-kame-28.08.2006.patch now maintained by Emmanuel Lochin.)

This patch fixes two problems caused by the ubiquitous long "hctx->ccid2htx_" and "hcrx->ccid2hcrx_" prefixes: * code becomes hard to read; * multiple-line statements are almost inevitable even for simple expressions; The prefixes are not really necessary (compare with "struct tcp_sock"). There had been previous discussion of this on dccp@vger, but so far this was not followed up (most people agreed that the prefixes are too long).

Two registration routines, for SP and NN features, are provided by this patch, replacing a previous routine which was used for both feature types. These are internal-only routines and therefore start with `__feat_register'. It further exports the known limits of Sequence Window and Ack Ratio as symbolic constants.

This sets the sysfs permissions so that root can toggle the `debug' parameter available for nearly every DCCP module. This is useful since there are various module inter-dependencies. The debug flag can now be toggled at runtime using echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp/parameters/dccp_debug echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid2/parameters/ccid2_debug echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid3/parameters/ccid3_debug echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_tfrc_lib/parameters/tfrc_debug The last is not very useful yet, since no code at the moment calls the tfrc_debug() macro.

The patch makes the registration messages of CCID 2/3 a bit more informative: instead of repeating the CCID number as currently done, "CCID: Registered CCID 2 (ccid2)" or "CCID: Registered CCID 3 (ccid3)", the descriptive names of the CCID's (from RFCs) are now used: "CCID: Registered CCID 2 (TCP-like)" and "CCID: Registered CCID 3 (TCP-Friendly Rate Control)". To allow spaces in the name, the slab name string has been changed to refer to the numeric CCID identifier, using the same format as before.

This removes a comment which identifies an `issue' with dccp_write_xmit() where there is none. The comment assumes it is possible that a packet is sent between the calls to ccid_hc_tx_send_packet(), dccp_transmit_skb(), ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent() (in the above order) in dccp_write_xmit(). I think that this is impossible, since dccp_write_xmit() is always called under lock: * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 1) from dccp_send_close(), the socket is locked (see code comment above dccp_send_close()); * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 0) from dccp_send_msg(), it is after lock_sock() has been called; * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 0) from dccp_write_xmit_timer(), bh_lock_sock() has been called and the if/else statement has made sure that sk_lock.owner is not set; * there are no other places where dccp_write_xmit() is called. Furthermore, the debug statement for printing the sequence number of the packet just sent has been removed, since the entire list is being printed anyway and so the entry of that number appears last.

The code used two different variables to count Acks, one of them redundant. This patch reduces the number of Ack counters to one. The type of the Ack counter has also been changed to u32 (twice the range of int); and the variable has been renamed into `packets_acked' - for consistency with RFC 3465 (and similarly named variables are used by TCP and SCTP). Lastly, a slightly less aggressive `maxincr' increment is used (for even Ack Ratios, maxincr was Ack Ratio/2 + 1 instead of Ack Ratio/2).

This removes the synchronisation variable `ccid2hctx_sendwait', which is set to 1 when the CCID2 sender may send a new packet, and which is set to 0 otherwise The variable is redundant, since it is only used in combination with the hc_tx_send_packet/ hc_tx_packet_sent function pair. Both functions are called under socket lock, so the following happens when the CCID2 may send a new packet: * it sets sendwait = 1 in tx_send_packet and returns 0; * the subsequent call to tx_packet_sent clears the sendwait flag; * since tx_send_packet returns 0 if and only if sendwait == 1, the BUG_ON condition in tx_packet_sent is never satisfied, since that function is never called when tx_send_packet returns a value different from 0 (cf. dccp_write_xmit); * the call to tx_packet_sent clears the flag so that the condition "!sendwait" is true the next time tx_packet_sent is called. In other words, it is sufficient to just return 0 / not-0 to synchronise tx_send_packet and tx_packet_sent -- which is what the patch does.

This reduces the amount of redundant debugging messages: * pipe/cwnd are printed in both tx_send_packet() and tx_packet_sent(). Both functions are called immediately after one another, so one occurrence is sufficient. * Since tx_packet_sent() prints pipe/cwnd already, the second printk for pipe is redundant. * In tx_packet_sent() the check_sanity function is called twice (at the begin and at the end).

The function ccid2_change_pipe only does an assignment. This patch simplifies the code by replacing the function with the assignment it performs. Furthermore, the type of pipe is promoted from `signed' to unsigned (increasing the range). As a result, a BUG_ON test for negative values now becomes obsolete (for safety not removed, but replaced with a less annoying `DCCP_BUG').
