From b0983d3c9b132c33b6fb2e28d157a1edc18a173c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2013 13:56:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: fix dynamic right sizing Dynamic Right Sizing (DRS) is supposed to open TCP receive window automatically, but suffers from two bugs, presented by order of importance. 1) tcp_rcv_space_adjust() fix : Using twice the last received amount is very pessimistic, because it doesn't allow fast recovery or proper slow start ramp up, if sender wants to increase cwin by 100% every RTT. copied = bytes received in previous RTT 2*copied = bytes we expect to receive in next RTT 4*copied = bytes we need to advertise in rwin at end of next RTT DRS is one RTT late, it needs a 4x factor. If sender is not using ABC, and increases cwin by 50% every rtt, then we needed 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 factor. This is probably why this bug was not really noticed. 2) There is no window adjustment after first RTT. DRS triggers only after the second RTT. DRS needs two RTT to initialize, so tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() should setup sk_rcvbuf to allow proper window grow for first two RTT. This patch increases TCP efficiency particularly for large RTT flows when autotuning is used at the receiver, and more particularly in presence of packet losses.
