David Howells 42ff00c23b rxrpc: Adjust retransmission backoff
[ Upstream commit 2c13c05c5f ]

Improve retransmission backoff by only backing off when we retransmit data
packets rather than when we set the lost ack timer.

To this end:

 (1) In rxrpc_resend(), use rxrpc_get_rto_backoff() when setting the
     retransmission timer and only tell it that we are retransmitting if we
     actually have things to retransmit.

     Note that it's possible for the retransmission algorithm to race with
     the processing of a received ACK, so we may see no packets needing
     retransmission.

 (2) In rxrpc_send_data_packet(), don't bump the backoff when setting the
     ack_lost_at timer, as it may then get bumped twice.

With this, when looking at one particular packet, the retransmission
intervals were seen to be 1.5ms, 2ms, 3ms, 5ms, 9ms, 17ms, 33ms, 71ms,
136ms, 264ms, 544ms, 1.088s, 2.1s, 4.2s and 8.3s.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
