From 31231a8a873026410eab438c5757430546a517d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kenneth Klette Jonassen Date: Fri, 1 May 2015 01:10:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: improve RTT from SACK for CC tcp_sacktag_one() always picks the earliest sequence SACKed for RTT. This might not make sense for congestion control in cases where: 1. ACKs are lost, i.e. a SACK following a lost SACK covers both new and old segments at the receiver. 2. The receiver disregards the RFC 5681 recommendation to immediately ACK out-of-order segments. Give congestion control a RTT for the latest segment SACKed, which is the most accurate RTT estimate, but preserve the conservative RTT for RTO. Removes the call to skb_mstamp_get() in tcp_sacktag_one(). Cc: Yuchung Cheng Cc: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: Kenneth Klette Jonassen Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: David S.
