2018-11-08tcp: pacer and mrtt estimation improvementsFlorin Coras1-1/+0
- update pacer once per burst - better estimate initial rtt - compute smoothed average for higher precision rtt estimate Change-Id: I06d41a98784cdf861bedfbee2e7d0afc0d0154ef Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
2018-11-07tcp: consume incoming buffers instead of reusingFlorin Coras1-9/+7
Instead of reusing buffers for acking, consume all buffers and program output for (dup)ack generation. This implicitly fixes the drop counters that were artificially inflated by both data and feedback traffic. Moreover, the patch also significantly reduces the ack traffic as we now only generate an ack per frame, unless duplicate acks need to be sent. Because of the reduced feedback traffic, a sender's rx path and a receiver's tx path are now significantly less loaded. In particular, a sender can overwhelm a 40Gbps NIC and generate tx drop bursts for low rtts. Consequently, tx pacing is now enforced by default.

2018-11-06tcp: dequeue acked only once per burstFlorin Coras1-0/+3
Avoid dequeuing acked bytes more than once per burst for a connection. Although the fifos do not use locks, size decrements are atomic, so they rely on locked instructions. Change-Id: Id65f4ea40b2c10057461402dfd0393034e6472d5 Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>

2018-10-25tcp/session: add tx pacerFlorin Coras1-2/+21
Adds tx pacing infrastructure for transport protocols that want to use it. Particularly useful for connections with non-negligible rtt and constrained network throughput as it avoids large tx bursts that lead to local interface tx or network drops. By default the pacer is disabled. To enabled it for tcp, add tx-pacing to tcp's startup conf. We are still slightly inefficient in the handling of incoming packets in established state so the pacer slightly affect maximum throughput in low lacency scenarios.

2018-10-23tcp: fast retransmit improvementsFlorin Coras1-4/+18
Patch is too large to be ported to 18.10 just days before release. - handle fast retransmits outside of established node and limit the retransmit burst size to avoid tx losses and worsening congestion. - in the absance of a tx pacer, use slow start after fast retransmit exists - add fast retransmit heuristic that re-retries sending the first segment if everything else fails - fine tuning Change-Id: I84a2ab8fbba8b97f1d2b26584dc11a1e2c33c8d2 Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
