The tcp_cwnd_restart function would be called if the user has enabled the tcp_slow_start_after_idle configuration and would be triggered when the connection is idle (like LONG RTO etc.). I think it would be great to add a new trace event named 'tcp:tcp_cwnd_reset'; it would help people to monitor the TCP state in a complicated network environment(like overlay/underlay SDN in Kubernetes, etc) Signed-off-by: Manjusaka <me@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/trace/events/tcp.h | 7 +++++++ net/ipv4/tcp_output.c | 1 + 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/trace/events/tcp.h b/include/trace/events/tcp.h index bf06db8d2046..fa44191cc609 100644 --- a/include/trace/events/tcp.h +++ b/include/trace/events/tcp.h @@ -187,6 +187,13 @@ DEFINE_EVENT(tcp_event_sk, tcp_rcv_space_adjust, TP_ARGS(sk) ); +DEFINE_EVENT(tcp_event_sk, tcp_cwnd_restart, + + TP_PROTO(struct sock *sk), + + TP_ARGS(sk) +); + TRACE_EVENT(tcp_retransmit_synack, TP_PROTO(const struct sock *sk, const struct request_sock *req), diff --git a/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c b/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c index 51d8638d4b4c..e902fa74303d 100644 --- a/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c +++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c @@ -141,6 +141,7 @@ static __u16 tcp_advertise_mss(struct sock *sk) */ void tcp_cwnd_restart(struct sock *sk, s32 delta) { + trace_tcp_cwnd_restart(sk); struct tcp_sock *tp = tcp_sk(sk); u32 restart_cwnd = tcp_init_cwnd(tp, __sk_dst_get(sk)); u32 cwnd = tcp_snd_cwnd(tp); -- 2.34.1
