RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for the passive open side

This patch lowers the default initRTO from 3secs to 1sec per
RFC2988bis. It falls back to 3secs if the SYN or SYN-ACK packet
has been retransmitted, AND the TCP timestamp option is not on.

It also adds support to take RTT sample during 3WHS on the passive
open side, just like its active open counterpart, and uses it, if
valid, to seed the initRTO for the data transmission phase.

The patch also resets ssthresh to its initial default at the
beginning of the data transmission phase, and reduces cwnd to 1 if
there has been MORE THAN ONE retransmission during 3WHS per RFC5681.

Well, the first copy I received this morning was OK ;)

But this second one is mangled by your mailer or something ?

Is this behavior somewhere documented? In RFC2988bis I cannot find something
similar.

See my 5/20/11 mail on this subject. The short answer is, no, it's not
part of RFC2988bis. The long answer is, when we (Vern, Mark and I)
were working
on RFC2988bis we shared a common design goal to minimize the negative
impact to those paths with RTT > 1sec as much as possible.

RFC3390 and later RFC5681 have the following clause:
"... Further, if the SYN or SYN/ACK is lost, the initial window used by a
sender after a correctly transmitted SYN MUST be one segment
consisting of at most SMSS bytes."

Unfortunately, with initRTO reduced to 1sec, unless the stack can reliably
detect spurious retransmissions of SYN or SYN-ACK, the paths with RTT >
1sec may be penalized unnecessarily with initcwnd = 1 if the stack
implementation follows the above clause faithfully. We can't really amend
the clause as part of RFC2988bis because it doesn't belong there, as the
latter only covers RTO computation, not the congestion control algorithm.
In the end Vern/Mark suggested me to add the amendment to the IW10
proposal I was working on (now becomes draft-ietf-tcpm-initcwnd-01.txt)
So I did, with following paragraph:
"...
   Furthermore, RFC 3390 and RFC 5681 [RFC5681] state that

         "If the SYN or SYN/ACK is lost, the initial window used by a
         sender after a correctly transmitted SYN MUST be one segment
         consisting of MSS bytes."

   The proposed change to reduce the default RTO to 1 second [PACS11]
   increases the chance for spurious SYN or SYN/ACK retransmission, thus
   unnecessarily penalizing connections with RTT > 1 second if their
   initial window is reduced to 1 segment. For this reason, it is
   RECOMMENDED that implementations refrain from resetting the initial
   window to 1 segment, unless either there have been multiple SYN or
   SYN/ACK retransmissions, or true loss detection has been made."

The patch follows the intent of the co-authors. It also moves the
implementation closer to the spec. Without the patch the existing
implementation will reduce ssthresh (active open side only), but not the
cwnd upon SYN or SYN-ACK retransmission.

Best,

Jerry

Please do not top-post.  Quote the commit log message portion, delete
the patch itself since you're not giving any specific feedback, and
then insert your Acked-by/Tested-by/Reviewed-by/whatever right
afterwards.

I know that people are trained not to properly put context before the
things they say in email replied, and edit out the unnecessary
portions of the quoted material, simply because many popular email
clients tend to make this difficult and make top-posting way too easy,
but that is not our problem.
