+ TFRC TCP Reno Throughput Equation Lookup Table for f(p)
+
+ The following two-column lookup table implements a part of the TCP throughput
+ equation from [RFC 3448, sec. 3.1]:
+
+ s
+ X_calc = --------------------------------------------------------------
+ R * sqrt(2*b*p/3) + (3 * t_RTO * sqrt(3*b*p/8) * (p + 32*p^3))
+
+ Where:
+ X is the transmit rate in bytes/second
+ s is the packet size in bytes
+ R is the round trip time in seconds
+ p is the loss event rate, between 0 and 1.0, of the number of loss
+ events as a fraction of the number of packets transmitted
+ t_RTO is the TCP retransmission timeout value in seconds
+ b is the number of packets acknowledged by a single TCP ACK
+
+ We can assume that b = 1 and t_RTO is 4 * R. The equation now becomes:
+
+ s
+ X_calc = -------------------------------------------------------
+ R * sqrt(p*2/3) + (12 * R * sqrt(p*3/8) * (p + 32*p^3))
+
+ which we can break down into:
+
+ s
+ X_calc = ---------
+ R * f(p)
+
+ where f(p) is given for 0 < p <= 1 by:
+
+ f(p) = sqrt(2*p/3) + 12 * sqrt(3*p/8) * (p + 32*p^3)
+
+ Since this is kernel code, floating-point arithmetic is avoided in favour of
+ integer arithmetic. This means that nearly all fractional parameters are
+ scaled by 1000000:
+ * the parameters p and R
+ * the return result f(p)
+ The lookup table therefore actually tabulates the following function g(q):
+
+ g(q) = 1000000 * f(q/1000000)
+
+ Hence, when p <= 1, q must be less than or equal to 1000000. To achieve finer
+ granularity for the practically more relevant case of small values of p (up to
+ 5%), the second column is used; the first one ranges up to 100%. This split
+ corresponds to the value of q = TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT. At the same time this also
+ determines the smallest resolution possible with this lookup table:
+
+ TFRC_SMALLEST_P = TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT / TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE
+
+ The entire table is generated by:
+ for(i=0; i < TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE; i++) {
+ lookup[i][0] = g((i+1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
+ lookup[i][1] = g((i+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
+ }
+
+ With the given configuration, we have, with M = TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE-1,
+ lookup[0][0] = g(1000000/(M+1)) = 1000000 * f(0.2%)
+ lookup[M][0] = g(1000000) = 1000000 * f(100%)
+ lookup[0][1] = g(TFRC_SMALLEST_P) = 1000000 * f(0.01%)
+ lookup[M][1] = g(TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT) = 1000000 * f(5%)
+
+ In summary, the two columns represent f(p) for the following ranges:
+ * The first column is for 0.002 <= p <= 1.0
+ * The second column is for 0.0001 <= p <= 0.05
+ Where the columns overlap, the second (finer-grained) is given preference,
+ i.e. the first column is used only for p >= 0.05.
