When multiple losses occur in one RTT, the window should be halved only once [a single "congestion event"]. This is now implemented, although not perfectly. Slightly changed the interface for changing the cwnd: pass hctx instead of dp. This is required in order to allow for change_cwnd to be called from _init().

Allocate more sequence state on demand. Each time a packet is sent out by CCID2, a record of it needs to be kept. This list of records grows proportionally to cwnd. Previously, the length of this list was hardcored and therefore the cwnd could only grow to this value (of 128). Now, records are allocated on demand as necessary---cwnd may grow as it wishes. The exceptional case of when memory is not available is not handled gracefully. Perhaps, cwnd should be capped at that point.

If not enough cwnd is available, tell the sender to check again as soon as possible. This will increase CPU utilization (polling frequently for cwnd) but will improve network performance. That is, the sender will need to wait less before detecting the increase of cwnd. A better architecture would be for the CCID to call-back (or dequeue) from DCCP when it is able to transmit traffic -- not the other way around as it currently occurs.

Initialize the slow-start threshold to infinity. This way, upon connection initiation, slow-start will be exited only upon a packet loss. This patch will allow connections to quickly gain speed.

Fix the way state is masked out. DCCP_ACKVEC_STATE_NOT_RECEIVED is defined as appears in the packet, therefore bit shifting is not required. This fix allows CCID2 to correctly detect losses.

Hashing SAs by source address breaks templates with wildcards as tunnel source since the source address used for hashing/lookup is still 0/0. Move source address lookup to xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one() so we can use the real address in the lookup. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

It does not affect either mss-sized connections (obviously) or connections controlled by Nagle (because there is only one small segment in flight). The idea is to record the fact that a small segment arrives on a connection, where one small segment has already been received and still not-ACKed. In this case ACK is forced after tcp_recvmsg() drains receive buffer. In other words, it is a "soft" each-2nd-segment ACK, which is enough to preserve ACK clock even when ABC is enabled.

This patch contains the following cleanups: - make the following needlessly global function static: - socket.c: sctp_apply_peer_addr_params() - add proper prototypes for the several global functions in include/net/sctp/sctp.h Note that this fixes wrong prototypes for the following functions: - sctp_snmp_proc_exit() - sctp_eps_proc_exit() - sctp_assocs_proc_exit() The latter was spotted by the GNU C compiler and reported by David Woodhouse.

iproute2 doesn't provide the NLM_F_CREATE flag when adding addresses, it is assumed to be implied. The existing code issues a check on said flag when the modify operation fails (likely due to ENOENT) before continueing to create it, this leads to a hard to predict result, therefore the NLM_F_CREATE check is removed.

It seems that during the MIPv6 respin, some code which was originally conditionally compiled around CONFIG_XFRM_ADVANCED was accidently left in after the config option was removed.

By passing a Linux-generated TSO packet straight back into Linux, Xen becomes our first LRO user :) Unfortunately, there is at least one spot in our stack that needs to be changed to cope with this. The receive MSS estimate is computed from the raw packet size. This is broken if the packet is GSO/LRO. Fortunately the real MSS can be found in gso_size so we simply need to use that if it is non-zero. Real LRO NICs should of course set the gso_size field in future.
