Subject: initial CCID2 implementation for linux
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2005 19:01:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051206190131.GA834@tribal.sorbonet.org> (raw)
http://darkircop.org/acme-ccid2-20051206.diff
it's a diff from today's:
git/acme/net-2.6.16.git
To use it, you need to compile support for ack vectors and:
setsockopt DCCP_SOCKOPT_CCID_RX and DCCP_SOCKOPT_CCID_TX to 2.
CCID2 status:
* Standard TCP congestion control:
- AIMD of cwnd, slow start etc.
* RTO timeouts:
- Maintains RTT estimate and calculates RTO from that.
- Doesn't support timestamp option.
* Ack ratios [reverse path congestion control]:
- Supported by "infrastructure"
- Missing feature negotiation, so no ack ratio change.
* ECN:
- Correctly adjusts cwnd when packets are reported ECN marked.
- Doesn't deal with ECN nonces.
- No ECN support for reverse path congestion [receiving ECN marked ACK].
* No support for determining that flows go silent [ack an ack stuff].
I need to make the code solid and linux friendly. Then I will split the patch
so hopefully arnaldo will agree to commit it. It currently includes, and will
be split to:
* connect() race condition:
Connect, send and disconnect real fast. I don't remember details but,
The socket will be transiting from SS_CONNECTING to SS_CONNECTED. However,
connect will return -1 because DCCP will have moved to CLOSE by the time
connect() checks status.
* disconnect doesn't cleanup state:
server sends close req. Client doesn't reply with close "fast enough".
Server will never destroy socket. I still gotta think about this more though.
* support for ack vector records
* support for switching ccids
* support for ccid2
Any feedback is appreciated. Specifically, if this code looks "promising" [i.e.
eventually commitable], it would be nice if someone can indicate the major
problems with it. [coding style, way of doing things, bugs, etc]
I'll now work on making the code more solid and splitting the patches.
