* CAIA Delay-Gradient (CDG) congestion control
|
|
*
|
|
* This implementation is based on the paper:
|
|
* D.A. Hayes and G. Armitage. "Revisiting TCP congestion control using
|
|
* delay gradients." In IFIP Networking, pages 328-341. Springer, 2011.
|
|
*
|
|
* Scavenger traffic (Less-than-Best-Effort) should disable coexistence
|
|
* heuristics using parameters use_shadow=0 and use_ineff=0.
|
|
*
|
|
* Parameters window, backoff_beta, and backoff_factor are crucial for
|
|
* throughput and delay. Future work is needed to determine better defaults,
|
|
* and to provide guidelines for use in different environments/contexts.
|
|
*
|
|
* Except for window, knobs are configured via /sys/module/tcp_cdg/parameters/.
|
|
* Parameter window is only configurable when loading tcp_cdg as a module.
|
|
*
|
|
* Notable differences from paper/FreeBSD:
|
|
* o Using Hybrid Slow start and Proportional Rate Reduction.
|
|
* o Add toggle for shadow window mechanism. Suggested by David Hayes.
|
|
* o Add toggle for non-congestion loss tolerance.
|
|
* o Scaling parameter G is changed to a backoff factor;
|
|
* conversion is given by: backoff_factor = 1000/(G * window).
|
|
* o Limit shadow window to 2 * cwnd, or to cwnd when application limited.
|
|
* o More accurate e^-x.
