1/*
2 * CAIA Delay-Gradient (CDG) congestion control
3 *
4 * This implementation is based on the paper:
5 * D.A. Hayes and G. Armitage. "Revisiting TCP congestion control using
6 * delay gradients." In IFIP Networking, pages 328-341. Springer, 2011.
7 *
8 * Scavenger traffic (Less-than-Best-Effort) should disable coexistence
9 * heuristics using parameters use_shadow=0 and use_ineff=0.
10 *
11 * Parameters window, backoff_beta, and backoff_factor are crucial for
12 * throughput and delay. Future work is needed to determine better defaults,
13 * and to provide guidelines for use in different environments/contexts.
14 *
15 * Except for window, knobs are configured via /sys/module/tcp_cdg/parameters/.
16 * Parameter window is only configurable when loading tcp_cdg as a module.
17 *
18 * Notable differences from paper/FreeBSD:
19 * o Using Hybrid Slow start and Proportional Rate Reduction.
20 * o Add toggle for shadow window mechanism. Suggested by David Hayes.
21 * o Add toggle for non-congestion loss tolerance.
22 * o Scaling parameter G is changed to a backoff factor;
23 * conversion is given by: backoff_factor = 1000/(G * window).
24 * o Limit shadow window to 2 * cwnd, or to cwnd when application limited.
25 * o More accurate e^-x.
