Try to wrap up the discussion and all the patches that happened in this tread, I'd like to send out what I've come up with. It's really a merge of all the points we've discussed (minus the Nagel/small fragment discussion). What we try to do in the first patch is bundle the SACK if we are going to send the DATA, regardless of if the SACK will fit in the same packet or not. The second patch in the series, will size the DATA chunks to account for possbile SACKs. This will encourage bundling. The last piece of the puzzle is what to do with the small message fragements. Wei's approach doesn't work in the face of small messages that the user decides to fragment as well (think, 400 byte message with a frag_size of 50). I think we need to take message size into account in this situation. Anyway, please feel free to comment on this approach. -vlad -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
