SVN rev 212765 on 2010-09-16 21:06:45Z by andre
Remove the TCP inflight bandwidth limiter as announced in r211315
to give way for the pluggable congestion control framework. It is
the task of the congestion control algorithm to set the congestion
window and amount of inflight data without external interference.
In 'struct tcpcb' the variables previously used by the inflight
limiter are renamed to spares to keep the ABI intact and to have
some more space for future extensions.
In 'struct tcp_info' the variable 'tcpi_snd_bwnd' is not removed to
preserve the ABI. It is always set to 0.
In siftr.c in 'struct pkt_node' the variable 'snd_bwnd' is not removed
to preserve the ABI. It is always set to 0.
These unused variable in the various structures may be reused in the
future or garbage collected before the next release or at some other
point when an ABI change happens anyway for other reasons.
No MFC is planned. The inflight bandwidth limiter stays disabled by
default in the other branches but remains available.
