[PATCH 07/11] CCID2: Tell DCCP to quickly check whether cwnd is available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If not enough cwnd is available, tell the sender to check again as soon as
possible.  This will increase CPU utilization (polling frequently for cwnd) but
will improve network performance.  That is, the sender will need to wait less
before detecting the increase of cwnd.  A better architecture would be for the
CCID to call-back (or dequeue) from DCCP when it is able to transmit
traffic---not the other way around as it currently occurs.
