dccp ccid-2: Replace broken RTT estimator with better algorithm
The current CCID-2 RTT estimator code is in parts broken and lags behind the
suggestions in RFC2988 of using scaled variants for SRTT/RTTVAR.
That code is replaced by the present patch, which reuses the Linux TCP RTT
estimator code.
Further details:
----------------
1. The minimum RTO of previously one second has been replaced with TCP's, since
RFC4341, sec. 5 says that the minimum of 1 sec. (suggested in RFC2988, 2.4)
is not necessary. Instead, the TCP_RTO_MIN is used, which agrees with DCCP's
concept of a default RTT (RFC 4340, 3.4).
2. The maximum RTO has been set to DCCP_RTO_MAX (64 sec), which agrees with
RFC2988, (2.5).
3. De-inlined the function ccid2_new_ack().
4. Added a FIXME: the RTT is sampled several times per Ack Vector, which will
give the wrong estimate. It should be replaced with one sample per Ack.
However, at the moment this can not be resolved easily, since
- it depends on TX history code (which also needs some work),
- the cleanest solution is not to use the `sent' time at all (saves 4 bytes
per entry) and use DCCP timestamps / elapsed time to estimated the RTT,
which however is non-trivial to get right (but needs to be done).
Reasons for reusing the Linux TCP estimator algorithm:
------------------------------------------------------
Some time was spent to find a better alternative, using basic RFC2988 as a first
step. Further analysis and experimentation showed that the Linux TCP RTO
estimator is superior to a basic RFC2988 implementation. A summary is on
http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/ccid2/rto_estimator/
In addition, this estimator fared well in a recent empirical evaluation:
Rewaskar, Sushant, Jasleen Kaur and F. Donelson Smith.
A Performance Study of Loss Detection/Recovery in Real-world TCP
Implementations. Proceedings of 15th IEEE International
Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP-07), 2007.

dccp ccid-2: Simplify dec_pipe and rearming of RTO timer
This removes the dec_pipe function and improves the way the RTO timer is rearmed
when a new acknowledgment comes in.
Details and justification for removal:
--------------------------------------
1) The BUG_ON in dec_pipe is never triggered: pipe is only decremented for TX
history entries between tail and head, for which it had previously been
incremented in tx_packet_sent; and it is not decremented twice for the same
entry, since it is
- either decremented when a corresponding Ack Vector cell in state 0 or 1
was received (and then ccid2s_acked==1),
- or it is decremented when ccid2s_acked==0, as part of the loss detection
in tx_packet_recv (and hence it can not have been decremented earlier).
2) Restarting the RTO timer happens for every single entry in each Ack Vector
parsed by tx_packet_recv (according to RFC 4340, 11.4 this can happen up to
16192 times per Ack Vector).
3) The RTO timer should not be restarted when all outstanding data has been
acknowledged. This is currently done similar to (2), in dec_pipe, when
pipe has reached 0.
The patch onsolidates the code which rearms the RTO timer, combining the
segments from new_ack and dec_pipe. As a result, the code becomes clearer
(compare with tcp_rearm_rto()).

dccp ccid-2: Remove redundant sanity tests
This removes the ccid2_hc_tx_check_sanity function: it is redundant.
Details:
The tx_check_sanity function performs three tests:
1) it checks that the circular TX list is sorted
- in ascending order of sequence number (ccid2s_seq)
- and time (ccid2s_sent),
- in the direction from `tail' (hctx_seqt) to `head' (hctx_seqh);
2) it ensures that the entire list has the length seqbufc * CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN;
3) it ensures that pipe equals the number of packets that were not
marked `acked' (ccid2s_acked) between `tail' and `head'.
The following argues that each of these tests is redundant, this can be verified
by going through the code.
(1) is not necessary, since both time and GSS increase from one packet to the
next, so that subsequent insertions in tx_packet_sent (which advance the `head'
pointer) will be in ascending order of time and sequence number.
In (2), the length of the list is always equal to seqbufc times CCID2_SEQBUF_LEN
(set to 1024) unless allocation caused an earlier failure, because:
* at initialisation (tx_init), there is one chunk of size 1024 and seqbufc=1;
* subsequent calls to tx_alloc_seq take place whenever head->next == tail in
tx_packet_sent; then a new chunk of size 1024 is inserted between head and
tail, and seqbufc is incremented by one.
To show that (3) is redundant requires looking at two cases.
The `pipe' variable of the TX socket is incremented only in tx_packet_sent, and
decremented in tx_packet_recv. When head == tail (TX history empty) then pipe
should be 0, which is the case directly after initialisation and after a
retransmission timeout has occurred (ccid2_hc_tx_rto_expire).
The first case involves parsing Ack Vectors for packets recorded in the live
portion of the buffer, between tail and head. For each packet marked by the
receiver as received (state 0) or ECN-marked (state 1), pipe is decremented by
one, so for all such packets the BUG_ON in tx_check_sanity will not trigger.
The second case is the loss detection in the second half of tx_packet_recv,
below the comment "Check for NUMDUPACK".
The first while-loop here ensures that the sequence number of `seqp' is either
above or equal to `high_ack', or otherwise equal to the highest sequence number
sent so far (of the entry head->prev, as head points to the next unsent entry).
The next while-loop ("while (1)") counts the number of acked packets starting
from that position of seqp, going backwards in the direction from head->prev to
tail. If NUMDUPACK=3 such packets were counted within this loop, `seqp' points
to the last acknowledged packet of these, and the "if (done == NUMDUPACK)" block
is entered next.
The while-loop contained within that block in turn traverses the list backwards,
from head to tail; the position of `seqp' is saved in the variable `last_acked'.
For each packet not marked as `acked', a congestion event is triggered within
the loop, and pipe is decremented. The loop terminates when `seqp' has reached
`tail', whereupon tail is set to the position previously stored in `last_acked'.
Thus, between `last_acked' and the previous position of `tail',
- pipe has been decremented earlier if the packet was marked as state 0 or 1;
- pipe was decremented if the packet was not marked as acked.
That is, pipe has been decremented by the number of packets between `last_acked'
and the previous position of `tail'. As a consequence, pipe now again reflects
the number of packets which have not (yet) been acked between the new position
of tail (at `last_acked') and head->prev, or 0 if head==tail. The result is that
the BUG_ON condition in check_sanity will also not be triggered, hence the test
(3) is also redundant.

This allows to remove tests which were previously necessary to protect

As a further byproduct of enabling the CCIDs only after the connection has been
fully established, several typecast-initialisations of ccid3_hc_{rx,tx}_sock

* the CCID is loaded, so it is not necessary to test if it is NULL,
* if it is possible to load a CCID and leave the private area NULL, then this

ep93xx_eth: Use net_device_stats from struct net_device
struct net_device has its own struct net_device_stats member, so use

Release semaphore forcefully in that case.
