No changes in algorithm, all changes are text replacement/substitution.

[DCCP]: Simplify interface of dccp_sample_rtt

The third parameter of dccp_sample_rtt now becomes useless and is removed.

Also combined the subtraction of the timestamp echo and the elapsed time.
This is safe, since (a) presence of timestamp echo is tested first and (b)
elapsed time is either present and non-zero or it is not set and equals 0
due to the memset in dccp_parse_options.

To avoid measuring option-processing time, the timestamp for measuring the
initial Request/Response RTT sample is taken directly when the function is
called (the Linux implementation always adds a timestamp on the Request,
so there is no loss in doing this).

This patch reduces the number of timestamps taken in the receive path
for each packet.

The ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() routine is called in
 * the receive path for each CCID3-controlled packet
 * for the nofeedback timer (if no feedback arrives during 4 RTT)

Currently, when there is no loss, each packet gets timestamped twice.
The patch resolves this by recycling the first timestamp taken on packet
reception for RTT sampling.

When the no_feedback_timer() is called, then the timestamp argument is
simply set to NULL - so that ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() takes care of the logic.

17 years ago[TCP]: Enable SACK enhanced FRTO (RFC4138) by default
Ilpo Järvinen [Thu, 20 Sep 2007 18:36:37 +0000 (11:36 -0700)]
[TCP]: Enable SACK enhanced FRTO (RFC4138) by default

Most of the description that follows comes from my mail to
netdev (some editing done):

Main obstacle to FRTO use is its deployment as it has to be on
the sender side where as wireless link is often the receiver's
access link. Take initiative on behalf of unlucky receivers and
enable it by default in future Linux TCP senders. Also IETF
seems to interested in advancing FRTO from experimental [1].

How does FRTO help?
===================

FRTO detects spurious RTOs and avoids a number of unnecessary
retransmissions and a couple of other problems that can arise
due to incorrect guess made at RTO (i.e., that segments were
lost when they actually got delayed which is likely to occur
e.g. in wireless environments with link-layer retransmission).
Though FRTO cannot prevent the first (potentially unnecessary)
retransmission at RTO, I suspect that it won't cost that much
even if you have to pay for each bit (won't be that high
percentage out of all packets after all :-)). However, usually
when you have a spurious RTO, not only the first segment
unnecessarily retransmitted but the *whole window*. It goes like
this: all cumulative ACKs got delayed due to in-order delivery,
then TCP will actually send 1.5*original cwnd worth of data in
the RTO's slow-start when the delayed ACKs arrive (basically the
original cwnd worth of it unnecessarily). In case one is
interested in minimizing unnecessary retransmissions e.g. due to
cost, those rexmissions must never see daylight. Besides, in the
worst case the generated burst overloads the bottleneck buffers
which is likely to significantly delay the further progress of
the flow. In case of ll rexmissions, ACK compression often
occurs at the same time making the burst very "sharp edged" (in
that case TCP often loses most of the segments above high_seq
=> very bad performance too). When FRTO is enabled, those
unnecessary retransmissions are fully avoided except for the
first segment and the cwnd behavior after detected spurious RTO
is determined by the response (one can tune that by sysctl).

Basic version (non-SACK enhanced one), FRTO can fail to detect
spurious RTO as spurious and falls back to conservative
behavior. ACK lossage is much less significant than reordering,
usually the FRTO can detect spurious RTO if at least 2
cumulative ACKs from original window are preserved (excluding
the ACK that advances to high_seq). With SACK-enhanced version,
the detection is quite robust.

FRTO should remove the need to set a high lower bound for the
RTO estimator due to delay spikes that occur relatively common
in some environments (esp. in wireless/cellular ones).

Device tree aware EMAC driver

Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs.  The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip.  This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.

This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac).  The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).

This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging.  Specifically:
- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices.  The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated.  At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.
