Hi all!! I'm new here! Nice to meet you all! Here is my question: I have to modify some algorithms in tcp implementation of the linux kernel. In particular I have to modify the exponential backoff algorithm and the slow start algorithm to improve the performance of tcp over (etherogeneous) networks wired-wireless. In this kind of network the round-trip time of a packet is an order bigger than wired-only networks... So what kind of books, or how-to, or tutorial should I read to apply the algorithm we elaborate to linux kernel?? I don't mind if documentation is related to old versions of the kernel, because I only have to test tcp performance, not kernel at all... If you already know where I have to put my hands in the kernel source, just let me know:) And if you want to help me in testing... You just need and tp public server!
