tcp: usec resolution SYN/ACK RTT
Currently SYN/ACK RTT is measured in jiffies. For LAN the SYN/ACK
RTT is often measured as 0ms or sometimes 1ms, which would affect
RTT estimation and min RTT samping used by some congestion control.
This patch improves SYN/ACK RTT to be usec resolution if platform
supports it. While the timestamping of SYN/ACK is done in request
sock, the RTT measurement is carefully arranged to avoid storing
another u64 timestamp in tcp_sock.
For regular handshake w/o SYNACK retransmission, the RTT is sampled
right after the child socket is created and right before the request
sock is released (tcp_check_req() in tcp_minisocks.c)
For Fast Open the child socket is already created when SYN/ACK was
sent, the RTT is sampled in tcp_rcv_state_process() after processing
the final ACK an right before the request socket is released.
If the SYN/ACK was retransmistted or SYN-cookie was used, we rely
on TCP timestamps to measure the RTT. The sample is taken at the
same place in tcp_rcv_state_process() after the timestamp values
are validated in tcp_validate_incoming(). Note that we do not store
TS echo value in request_sock for SYN-cookies, because the value
is already stored in tp->rx_opt used by tcp_ack_update_rtt().
One side benefit is that the RTT measurement now happens before
initializing congestion control (of the passive side). Therefore
the congestion control can use the SYN/ACK RTT.
