Dave,
can you please consider the following set of 4, which solves several problems
of the CCID packet-dequeueing interface. This set has been tested for about
3 years.
Patch #1: sets up a return code convention to handle both rate-based and
window-based congestion-control IDs (CCIDs) with one function.
Patch #2: generalizes the xmit interface: rate-based CCIDs continue to use
timers, whereas window-based ones use a tasklet.
Patch #3: fixes issues in cleaning up CCID state when closing a connection,
like patch #2 this also divides into rate-based/window-based.
Patch #4: using the previous patches, takes CCID-2 out of its polling mode
(that was the problem of the xmit interface - CCID-2 kept on
abusing it by faking a small timeout, constantly polling until
its internal congestion state allowed it to send again).
The set has also been placed into a fresh (today's) copy of net-next-2.6, on
git://eden-feed.erg.abdn.ac.uk/net-next-2.6 [subtree 'dccp']
The set is fully bisectable.
