TCP拥塞控制算法 — CUBIC的补丁（五）
描述

以下是提交者Sangtae Ha对这个patch的描述：

make the delay threshold of HyStart less sensitive

Make HyStart less sensitive to abrupt delay variations due to buffer bloat.

--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.c+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.c@@ -39,7 +39,7 @@  /* Number of delay samples for detecting the increase of delay */ #define HYSTART_MIN_SAMPLES8-#define HYSTART_DELAY_MIN(2U<<3)+#define HYSTART_DELAY_MIN(4U<<3) #define HYSTART_DELAY_MAX(16U<<3) #define HYSTART_DELAY_THRESH(x)clamp(x, HYSTART_DELAY_MIN, HYSTART_DELAY_MAX)

增大了Delay Increase的最小阈值，减小HyStart因为正常的时延抖动而过早退出的概率。

我们知道目前的路由器缓存普遍偏大，这就意味着排队时延的抖动不可避免。

之前Delay Increase的阈值：

(1) delay_min < 32ms, threshold = 2ms

(2) 32ms <= delay_min <= 256ms, threshold = delay_min/16 ms

(3) delay_min > 256ms, threshold = 16ms

现在Delay Increase的阈值：

(1) delay_min < 64ms, threshold = 4ms

(2) 64ms <= delay_min <= 256ms, threshold = delay_min/16 ms

(3) delay_min > 256ms, threshold = 16ms
