2 * TCP Low Priority (TCP-LP)
3 *
4 * TCP Low Priority is a distributed algorithm whose goal is to utilize only
5 * the excess network bandwidth as compared to the ``fair share`` of
Wong Hoi Sing Edison3795da42006-09-13 20:30:30 -07006 * bandwidth as targeted by TCP.
Wong Hoi Sing Edison7c106d72006-06-05 17:27:58 -07007 *
Wong Hoi Sing Edison7c106d72006-06-05 17:27:58 -07008 * As of 2.6.13, Linux supports pluggable congestion control algorithms.
9 * Due to the limitation of the API, we take the following changes from
10 * the original TCP-LP implementation:
11 * o We use newReno in most core CA handling. Only add some checking
12 * within cong_avoid.
13 * o Error correcting in remote HZ, therefore remote HZ will be keeped
14 * on checking and updating.
Lucas De Marchi25985ed2011-03-30 22:57:33 -030015 * o Handling calculation of One-Way-Delay (OWD) within rtt_sample, since
Wong Hoi Sing Edison7c106d72006-06-05 17:27:58 -070016 * OWD have a similar meaning as RTT. Also correct the buggy formular.
17 * o Handle reaction for Early Congestion Indication (ECI) within
18 * pkts_acked, as mentioned within pseudo code.
19 * o OWD is handled in relative format, where local time stamp will in
20 * tcp_time_stamp format.
21 *
