loss event but not use or obay the recommendations i.e. values set by it in some
cases.
Here is an attempt to solve that confusion by following relevant RFCs/drafts.
Stack only sets congestion window/slow start threshold values when there is no
CC module availalbe to take that action. All CC modules are inspected and
updated when needed to take appropriate action on loss.
tcp_stacks/fastpath module has been updated to adapt these changes.
Note: Probably, the most significant change would be to not bring congestion
window down to 1MSS on a loss signaled by 3-duplicate acks and letting
respective CC decide that value.

received on a TCP session that has entered the ESTABLISHED state. This
results in a lot of calls to reset the keepalive timer.
This patch changes the behavior so we set the keepalive timer for the
keepalive idle time (TP_KEEPIDLE). When the keepalive timer fires, it will
first check to see if the session has been idle for TP_KEEPIDLE ticks. If
not, it will reschedule the keepalive timer for the time the session will
have been idle for TP_KEEPIDLE ticks.
For a session with regular communication, the keepalive timer should fire
approximately once every TP_KEEPIDLE ticks. For sessions with irregular
communication, the keepalive timer might fire more often. But, the
disruption from a periodic keepalive timer should be less than the regular
cost of resetting the keepalive timer on every packet.
(FWIW, this change saved approximately 1.73% of the busy CPU cycles on a
particular test system with a heavy TCP output load. Of course, the
actual impact is very specific to the particular hardware and workload.)

to add actions that run when a TCP frame is sent or received on a TCP
session in the ESTABLISHED state. In the base tree, this functionality is
only used for the h_ertt module, which is used by the cc_cdg, cc_chd, cc_hd,
and cc_vegas congestion control modules.
Presently, we incur overhead to check for hooks each time a TCP frame is
sent or received on an ESTABLISHED TCP session.
This change adds a new compile-time option (TCP_HHOOK) to determine whether
to include the hhook(9) framework for TCP. To retain backwards
compatibility, I added the TCP_HHOOK option to every configuration file that
already defined "options INET". (Therefore, this patch introduces no
functional change. In order to see a functional difference, you need to
compile a custom kernel without the TCP_HHOOK option.) This change will
allow users to easily exclude this functionality from their kernel, should
they wish to do so.
Note that any users who use a custom kernel configuration and use one of the
congestion control modules listed above will need to add the TCP_HHOOK
option to their kernel configuration.

structures in the add of a new tcp-stack that came in late to me
via email after the last commit. It also makes it so that a new
stack may optionally get a callback during a retransmit
timeout. This allows the new stack to clear specific state (think
sack scoreboards or other such structures).

Other optimizations may be coming to go with this. Whats here
