From 463236557db4b5d4de9eb3fafa2e7d7905ac65ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Ilpo=20J=C3=A4rvinen?= Date: Sat, 19 May 2007 13:56:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [TCP] FRTO: Add missing ECN CWR sending to one of the responses MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The conservative spurious RTO response did not queue CWR even though the sending rate was lowered. Whenever reduction happens regardless of reason, CWR should be sent (forgetting to send it is not very fatal though). A better approach would be to queue CWR when one of the sending rate reducing responses (rate-halving one or this conservative response) is used already at RTO. Doing that would allow CWR to be sent along with the two new data segments that are sent during FRTO. However, it's a bit "racy" because userland could tune the response sysctl to a more aggressive one in between. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen Signed-off-by: David S.
