3 * TCP Vegas congestion control
4 *
5 * This is based on the congestion detection/avoidance scheme described in
6 * Lawrence S. Brakmo and Larry L. Peterson.
7 * "TCP Vegas: End to end congestion avoidance on a global internet."
8 * IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, 13(8):1465--1480,
9 * October 1995. Available from:
10 * ftp://ftp.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/Papers/jsac.ps
11 *
12 * See http://www.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/ for their implementation.
13 * The main aspects that distinguish this implementation from the
14 * Arizona Vegas implementation are:
15 * o We do not change the loss detection or recovery mechanisms of
16 * Linux in any way. Linux already recovers from losses quite well,
17 * using fine-grained timers, NewReno, and FACK.
18 * o To avoid the performance penalty imposed by increasing cwnd
19 * only every-other RTT during slow start, we increase during
20 * every RTT during slow start, just like Reno.
21 * o Largely to allow continuous cwnd growth during slow start,
22 * we use the rate at which ACKs come back as the "actual"
23 * rate, rather than the rate at which data is sent.
24 * o To speed convergence to the right rate, we set the cwnd
25 * to achieve the right ("actual") rate when we exit slow start.
26 * o To filter out the noise caused by delayed ACKs, we use the
27 * minimum RTT sample observed during the last RTT to calculate
28 * the actual rate.
29 * o When the sender re-starts from idle, it waits until it has
30 * received ACKs for an entire flight of new data before making
31 * a cwnd adjustment decision. The original Vegas implementation
32 * assumed senders never went idle.
