The BIC TCP cwnd problem as identified by Yee-Ting Li and Doug Leith is that the computation is recalc_ssthresh is incorrect and BICTCP_1_OVER_BETA/2 should be BICTCP_1_OVER_BETA*2. My fix is to implement the code from BIC TCP 1.1 which uses a sysctl to set the beta. There are a few variable name changes from the 1.1 code, and made the scaling factor a #define instead of hardcoded. I validated this using netem and kprobes, for more details see http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/bic-beta-patch.pdfSigned-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
