2008-01-28[TFRC]: Provide central source file and debug facilityGerrit Renker
This patch changes the tfrc_lib module in the following manner: (1) a dedicated tfrc source file to call the packet history & loss interval init/exit functions. (2) a dedicated tfrc_pr_debug macro with toggle switch `tfrc_debug'. Commiter note: renamed tfrc_module.c to tfrc.c, and made CONFIG_IP_DCCP_CCID3 select IP_DCCP_TFRC_LIB.

2008-01-28[DCCP]: Remove redundant dependency on IP_DCCPGerrit Renker
This cleans up the consequences of an earlier patch which introduced the `if IP_DCCP' clause into net/dccp/Kconfig. The CCID Kconfig menu is sourced within this clause; as a consequence, all tests of type `depends on IP_DCCP' are now redundant.

2008-01-28[DCCP]: Promote CCID2 as default CCIDGerrit Renker
This patch addresses the following problems: 1. DCCP relies for its proper functioning on having at least one CCID module enabled (as in TCP plugable congestion control). Currently it is possible to disable both CCIDs and thus leave the DCCP module in a compiled, but entirely non-functional state: no sockets can be created when no CCID is available. Furthermore, the protocol is (again like TCP) not intended to be used without CCIDs. Last, a non-empty CCID list is needed for doing CCID feature negotiation. 2. Internally the default CCID that is advertised by the Linux host is set to CCID2 (DCCPF_INITIAL_CCID in include/linux/dccp.h). Disabling CCID2 in the Kconfig menu without changing the defaults leads to a failure `module not found' when trying to load the dccp module (which internally tries to load the default CCID). 3. The specification (RFC 4340, sec. 10) treats CCID2 somewhat like a `minimum common denominator'; the specification says that: * "New connections start with CCID 2 for both endpoints" * "A DCCP implementation intended for general use, such as an implementation in a general-purpose operating system kernel, SHOULD implement at least CCID 2. The intent is to make CCID 2 broadly available for interoperability [...]" Providing CCID2 as minimum-required CCID (like Reno/Cubic in TCP) thus seems reasonable. Hence this patch automatically selects CCID2 when DCCP is enabled. Documentation also added. Discussions with Ian McDonald on this subject are gratefully acknowledged.

2006-12-03[DCCP]: Use higher RTO default for CCID3Gerrit Renker
The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4 RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very frequently. This patch provides a configuration option to set the bound for the nofeedback timer, using as default 100 milliseconds. By setting the configuration option to 0, strict RFC 3448 behaviour can be enforced for the nofeedback timer.

2006-12-02[DCCP]: Add CCID3 debug support to KconfigGerrit Renker
This adds a CCID3 debug option to the configuration menu which is missing in Kconfig, but already used by the code. CCID 2 already provides such an entry. To enable debugging, set CONFIG_IP_DCCP_CCID3_DEBUG=y NOTE: The use of ccid3_{t,r}x_state_name is safe, since now only enum values can appear.

2006-12-02[DCCP]: enable debug messages also for static buildsGerrit Renker
This patch * makes debugging (when configured) work both for static / module build * provides generic debugging macros for use in other DCCP / CCID modules * adds missing information about debug parameters to Kconfig * performs some code tidy-up Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2006-10-24[DCCP]: Update documentation references.Gerrit Renker
Updates the references to spec documents throughout the code, taking into account that * the DCCP, CCID 2, and CCID 3 drafts all became RFCs in March this year * RFC 1063 was obsoleted by RFC 1191 * draft-ietf-tcpimpl-pmtud-0x.txt was published as an Informational RFC, RFC 2923 on 2000-09-22.

2006-03-20[DCCP] CCID2: Initial CCID2 (TCP-Like) implementationAndrea Bittau
Original work by Andrea Bittau, Arnaldo Melo cleaned up and fixed several issues on the merge process. For now CCID2 was turned the default for all SOCK_DCCP connections, but this will be remedied soon with the merge of the feature negotiation code.

2005-08-29[DCCP]: Introduce dccp_tfrc_lib module with net/dccp/ccids/lib/*.cArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
I'll now take a look at the other proposed TFRC DCCP CCIDs to find more code that is now in ccid3.c and move to this module, the loss event rate, calc_X, etc most probably will be moved there. The main goal of these changes is to pave the way for the implementation of more TFRC based DCCP CCIDs and to shrink ccid3.c, reducing its complexity and helping in getting it rock solid.

Development to this point was done on a subversion repository at: http://oops.ghostprotocols.net:81/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dccp-2.6/ This repository will be kept at this site for the foreseable future, so that interested parties can see the history of this code, attributions, etc. If I ever decide to take this offline I'll provide the full history at some other suitable place.
