Series | [net] tcp_bbr: fix to zero idle_restart only upon S/ACKed data | expand |
From: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Date: Tue, 1 May 2018 21:45:41 -0400 > Previously the bbr->idle_restart tracking was zeroing out the > bbr->idle_restart bit upon ACKs that did not SACK or ACK anything, > e.g. receiving incoming data or receiver window updates. In such > situations BBR would forget that this was a restart-from-idle > situation, and if the min_rtt had expired it would unnecessarily enter > PROBE_RTT (even though we were actually restarting from idle but had > merely forgotten that fact). > > The fix is simple: we need to remember we are restarting from idle > until we receive a S/ACK for some data (a S/ACK for the first flight > of data we send as we are restarting). > > This commit is a stable candidate for kernels back as far as 4.9. > > Fixes: 0f8782ea1497 ("tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control") > Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> > Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> > Signed-off-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@google.com> > Signed-off-by: Priyaranjan Jha <priyarjha@google.com> > Signed-off-by: Yousuk Seung <ysseung@google.com> Applied and queued up for -stable.
