[TCP]: less inline's

2006-01-04T00:03:49+00:00

TCP inline usage cleanup: * get rid of inline in several places * replace __inline__ with inline where possible * move functions used in one file out of tcp.h * let compiler decide on used once cases On x86_64: text data bss dec hex filename 3594701 648348 567400 4810449 4966d1 vmlinux.orig 3593133 648580 567400 4809113 496199 vmlinux On sparc64: text data bss dec hex filename 2538278 406152 530392 3474822 350586 vmlinux.ORIG 2536382 406384 530392 3473158 34ff06 vmlinux Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.

[TWSK]: Introduce struct timewait_sock_ops

2006-01-03T21:10:54+00:00

So that we can share several timewait sockets related functions and make the timewait mini sockets infrastructure closer to the request mini sockets one. Next changesets will take advantage of this, moving more code out of TCP and DCCP v4 and v6 to common infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[ICSK]: Rename struct tcp_func to struct inet_connection_sock_af_ops

2006-01-03T21:10:38+00:00

And move it to struct inet_connection_sock. DCCP will use it in the upcoming changesets. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[TCP]: speed up SACK processing

2005-11-11T01:14:59+00:00

Use "hints" to speed up the SACK processing. Various forms of this have been used by TCP developers (Web100, STCP, BIC) to avoid the 2x linear search of outstanding segments. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[TCP]: spelling fixes

[TCP]: Appropriate Byte Count support

2005-11-11T01:09:53+00:00

This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control. The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little change after leaving slow start.

[TCP]: add tcp_slow_start helper

2005-11-11T01:07:24+00:00

Move all the code that does linear TCP slowstart to one inline function to ease later patch to add ABC support. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[TCP]: fix congestion window update when using TSO deferal

2005-11-11T00:53:30+00:00

TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful. On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and 50Mbits/sec without TSO. The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window unless we have filled, as per RFC2861. This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full with something smarter that accounts for TSO.
