tcp: Use clamp() in htcp_alpha_update()

2024-08-06T19:16:25+00:00

Using clamp instead of min(max()) is easier to read and it matches even better the comment just above it. It also reduces the size of the preprocessed files by ~ 2.5 ko.

tcp: add accessors to read/set tp->snd_cwnd

2022-04-06T19:05:41+00:00

We had various bugs over the years with code breaking the assumption that tp->snd_cwnd is greater than zero. Lately, syzbot reported the WARN_ON_ONCE(!tp->prior_cwnd) added in commit 8b8a321ff72c ("tcp: fix zero cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reduction") can trigger, and without a repro we would have to spend considerable time finding the bug. Instead of complaining too late, we want to catch where and when tp->snd_cwnd is set to an illegal value.

Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: IPv*

2020-07-06T20:23:03+00:00

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

treewide: Add SPDX license identifier for more missed files

2019-05-21T08:50:45+00:00

Add SPDX license identifiers to all files which: - Have no license information of any form - Have MODULE_LICENCE("GPL*") inside which was used in the initial scan/conversion to ignore the file These files fall under the project license, GPL v2 only. The resulting SPDX license identifier is: GPL-2.0-only Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tcp: fix cwnd undo in Reno and HTCP congestion controls

2017-08-07T04:25:10+00:00

Using ssthresh to revert cwnd is less reliable when ssthresh is bounded to 2 packets. This patch uses an existing variable in TCP "prior_cwnd" that snapshots the cwnd right before entering fast recovery and RTO recovery in Reno. This fixes the issue discussed in netdev thread: "A buggy behavior for Linux TCP Reno and HTCP" https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg444955.html Suggested-by: Neal Cardwell Reported-by: Wei Sun Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: David S.

tcp: replace misc tcp_time_stamp to tcp_jiffies32

2017-05-17T20:06:01+00:00

After this patch, all uses of tcp_time_stamp will require a change when we introduce 1 ms and/or 1 us TCP TS option. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

tcp: replace cnt & rtt with struct in pkts_acked()

2016-05-11T18:43:19+00:00

Replace 2 arguments (cnt and rtt) in the congestion control modules' pkts_acked() function with a struct. This will allow adding more information without having to modify existing congestion control modules (tcp_nv in particular needs bytes in flight when packet was sent). As proposed by Neal Cardwell in his comments to the tcp_nv patch. Signed-off-by: Lawrence Brakmo Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

tcp: add tcp_in_slow_start helper

2015-07-09T21:22:52+00:00

Add a helper to test the slow start condition in various congestion control modules and other places. This is to prepare a slight improvement in policy as to exactly when to slow start.

tcp: remove in_flight parameter from cong_avoid() methods

2014-05-03T23:23:07+00:00

Commit e114a710aa505 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve congestion control") obsoleted in_flight parameter from tcp_is_cwnd_limited() and its callers. This patch does the removal as promised. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
