If an ACK is received which advances tp->snd_una, 26 * then the retransmit timer is cleared (if there are no more 27 * outstanding segments) or reset to the base value (if there 28 * are more ACKs expected). Whenever the retransmit timer goes off, 29 * we retransmit one unacknowledged segment, and do a backoff 30 * on the retransmit timer. 31 * 32 * The TCPT_PERSIST timer is used to keep window size information 33 * flowing even if the window goes shut. If all previous transmissions 34 * have been acknowledged (so that there are no retransmissions in progress), 35 * and the window is too small to bother sending anything, then we start 36 * the TCPT_PERSIST timer. When it expires, if the window is nonzero, 37 * we go to transmit state. Otherwise, at intervals send a single byte 38 * into the peer's window to force him to update our window information. 39 * We do this at most as often as TCPT_PERSMIN time intervals, 40 * but no more frequently than the current estimate of round-trip 41 * packet time. The TCPT_PERSIST timer is cleared whenever we receive 42 * a window update from the peer. 43 * 44 * The TCPT_KEEP timer is used to keep connections alive. If an 45 * connection is idle (no segments received) for TCPTV_KEEP_INIT amount of time, 46 * but not yet established, then we drop the connection. Once the connection 47 * is established, if the connection is idle for TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE time 48 * (and keepalives have been enabled on the socket), we begin to probe 49 * the connection. We force the peer to send us a segment by sending: 50 * <SEQ=SND.UNA-1><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK> 51 * This segment is (deliberately) outside the window, and should elicit 52 * an ack segment in response from the peer. If, despite the TCPT_KEEP 53 * initiated segments we cannot elicit a response from a peer in TCPT_MAXIDLE 54 * amount of time probing, then we drop the connection. 55 */ 56 57 /* 58 * Time constants. 59 */ 60 #define TCPTV_MSL ( 30*PR_SLOWHZ) /* max seg lifetime (hah!) */ 61 #define TCPTV_SRTTBASE 0 /* base roundtrip time; 62 if 0, no idea yet */ 63 #define TCPTV_SRTTDFLT ( 3*PR_SLOWHZ) /* assumed RTT if no info */ 64 65 #define TCPTV_PERSMIN ( 5*PR_SLOWHZ) /* retransmit persistance */ 66 #define TCPTV_PERSMAX ( 60*PR_SLOWHZ) /* maximum persist interval */ 67 68 #define TCPTV_KEEP_INIT ( 75*PR_SLOWHZ) /* initial connect keep alive */ 69 #define TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE (120*60*PR_SLOWHZ) /* dflt time before probing */ 70 #define TCPTV_KEEPINTVL ( 75*PR_SLOWHZ) /* default probe interval */ 71 #define TCPTV_KEEPCNT 8 /* max probes before drop */ 72 73 #define TCPTV_MIN ( 1*PR_SLOWHZ) /* minimum allowable value */ 74 #define TCPTV_REXMTMAX ( 64*PR_SLOWHZ) /* max allowable REXMT value */ 75 76 #define TCP_LINGERTIME 120 /* linger at most 2 minutes */ 77 78 #define TCP_MAXRXTSHIFT 12 /* maximum retransmits */ 79 80 #ifdef TCPTIMERS 81 char *tcptimers[] = 82 { "REXMT", "PERSIST", "KEEP", "2MSL" }; 83 #endif 84 85 /* 86 * Force a time value to be in a certain range. 87 */ 88 #define TCPT_RANGESET(tv, value, tvmin, tvmax) { \ 89 (tv) = (value); \ 90 if ((tv) < (tvmin)) \ 91 (tv) = (tvmin); \ 92 else if ((tv) > (tvmax)) \ 93 (tv) = (tvmax); \ 94 } 95 96 #ifdef KERNEL 97 extern int tcp_keepidle; /* time before keepalive probes begin */ 98 extern int tcp_keepintvl; /* time between keepalive probes */ 99 extern int tcp_maxidle; /* time to drop after starting probes */ 100 extern int tcp_ttl; /* time to live for TCP segs */ 101 extern int tcp_backoff[]; 102 #endif 103
