New Revision: 331214
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/331214

Log:
  Add support for the experimental Internet-Draft "TCP Alternative Backoff with
  ECN (ABE)" proposal to the New Reno congestion control algorithm module.
  ABE reduces the amount of congestion window reduction in response to
  ECN-signalled congestion relative to the loss-inferred congestion response.
  
  More details about ABE can be found in the Internet-Draft:
  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-alternativebackoff-ecn
  
  The implementation introduces four new sysctls:
  
  - net.inet.tcp.cc.abe defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to non-zero to
    enable ABE for ECN-enabled TCP connections.
  
  - net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta and net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta_ecn set the
    multiplicative window decrease factor, specified as a percentage, applied to
    the congestion window in response to a loss-based or ECN-based congestion
    signal respectively. They default to the values specified in the draft i.e.
    beta=50 and beta_ecn=80.
  
  - net.inet.tcp.cc.abe_frlossreduce defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to
    non-zero to enable the use of standard beta (50% by default) when repairing
    loss during an ECN-signalled congestion recovery episode. It enables a more
    conservative congestion response and is provided for the purposes of
    experimentation as a result of some discussion at IETF 100 in Singapore.
  
  The values of beta and beta_ecn can also be set per-connection by way of the
  TCP_CCALGOOPT TCP-level socket option and the new CC_NEWRENO_BETA or
  CC_NEWRENO_BETA_ECN CC algo sub-options.

+.In netinet/cc/cc_newreno.h
 .Sh DESCRIPTION
 The NewReno congestion control algorithm is the default for TCP.
 Details about the algorithm can be found in RFC5681.
+.Sh Socket Options
+The
+.Nm
+module supports a number of socket options under TCP_CCALGOOPT (refer to
+.Xr tcp 4
+and
+.Xr moc_cc 9 for details)
+which can
+be set with
+.Xr setsockopt 2
+and tested with
+.Xr getsockopt 2 .
+The 
+.Nm
+socket options use this structure defined in
