While working on the promised EWMA patch for CCID 3 packet sizes, I stumbled over two things and can make no sense of a bit of CCID 3 Receive code:1) ccid3_hc_rx_sock maintains a real-timer RTT counter ccid3hcrx_rtt which is an alias for a TFRC structure defined in <linux/tfrc.h> 2) ccid3_hc_rx_packet_recv (detailed below) updates this, but leaves the variable `win_count = packet->dccphrx_ccval;' entirely untouched after initialisation It may be that ... ? * this is because a real-time counter as opposed to the 4-digit window value counter affords better reliability (but then win_count should be removed) * this stems from the original TFRC code and might need update
Well, the ccid3 codebase has a long lineage, came from Lulea, passed thru Waikato and the thru my linux CodingStyle and use slab caches, turn parts into a lib, etc, so it may have all sorts of dragons, oops, bugs lurking, Ian has more knowledge about CCID3 and the original Waikato codebase, so he may well answer your questions while I try to get the rest of the patch queue processed :-) - Arnaldo - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dccp" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
