tcp_transmit_skb

Hi,
In tcp_transmit_skb in tcp_output.c, there is a call to tcp_enter_cwr.
Because of this, ssthresh is reset to a smaller value when the first
packet is transmitted. My understanding is that ssthresh should be reset
to cwnd/2 only when there is an indication of congestion. I'm using
linux-2.4.19. Could someone explain me the significance of calling
tcp_enter_cwr in the routine tcp_transmit_skb ?

Thanks,
Rajkumar
