From 9ad084d666194c20a30e3589cbfaf971dae55c24 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuchung Cheng Date: Wed, 18 May 2022 17:34:10 -0700 Subject: tcp: improve PRR loss recovery This patch improves TCP PRR loss recovery behavior for a corner case. Previously during PRR conservation-bound mode, it strictly sends the amount equals to the amount newly acked or s/acked. The patch changes s.t. PRR may send additional amount that was banked previously (e.g. application-limited) in the conservation-bound mode, similar to the slow-start mode. This unifies and simplifies the algorithm further and may improve the recovery latency. This change still follow the general packet conservation design principle and always keep inflight/cwnd below the slow start threshold set by the congestion control module. PRR is described in RFC 6937. We'll include this change in the latest revision rfc6937-bis as well.
