Re: [PATCH] tcp: for tcp westwood implementation

[Jae-Hyun Hwang <jhhwang@os.korea.ac.kr>]

Is it still wrong?
I hope this patch is successful.

From: Jae-Hyun Hwang <jhhwang@os.korea.ac.kr>

Current net/ipv4/tcp_westwood.c seems to be unnatural when compared
with Westwood papers.
Since Linux TCP calls '.ssthresh' interface whenever packet loss is
detected, it is more natural that the interface points to
'tcp_westwood_bw_rttmin' function, not Reno's function.
This patch also enables Westwood to perform its algorithm when
CA_EVENT_LOSS event is generated as explained in the papers.
