From 375fe02c91792917aa26d68a87ab110d1937f44e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuchung Cheng Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 16:20:45 -0700 Subject: tcp: consolidate SYNACK RTT sampling The first patch consolidates SYNACK and other RTT measurement to use a central function tcp_ack_update_rtt(). A (small) bonus is now SYNACK RTT measurement happens after PAWS check, potentially reducing the impact of RTO seeding on bad TCP timestamps values.

That's because broken middle-boxes and remote peer can return packets with corrupted TS ECR fields. Similarly most congestion controls that require RTT signals favor timing-based sources as well.

The Karn's algorithm does not apply even if that ACK (s)acks other retransmitted sequences, because it must been generated by an original but perhaps out-of-order packet. There is no ambiguity. In case when multiple blocks are newly sacked because of ACK losses the earliest block is used to measure RTT, similar to cummulative ACKs. Such RTT samples allow the sender to estimate the RTO during loss recovery and packet reordering events. It is still useful even with TCP timestamps. That's because during these events the SND.UNA may not advance preventing RTT samples from TS ECR (thus the FLAG_ACKED check before calling tcp_ack_update_rtt()). Therefore this new RTT source is complementary to existing ACK and TS RTT mechanisms. This patch does not update the RTO. It is done in the next patch.

The sender can continue to estimate the RTO during loss recovery or reordering event upon receiving non-partial ACKs. This also changes when the RTO is re-armed. Previously it is only re-armed when some data is cummulatively acknowledged (i.e., SND.UNA advances), but now it is re-armed whenever RTT estimator is updated. This feature is particularly useful to reduce spurious timeout for buffer bloat including cellular carriers [1], and RTT estimation on reordering events.
