Subject: [PATCH] codel: refine one condition to avoid a nul rec_inv_sqrt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
commit 2359a47671fc4fb0fe5e9945f76c2cb10792c0f8 upstream.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One condition before codel_Newton_step() was not good if
|
|
|
|
we never left the dropping state for a flow. As a result
|
|
|
|
rec_inv_sqrt was 0, instead of the ~0 initial value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
codel control law was then set to a very aggressive mode, dropping
|
|
|
|
many packets before reaching 'target' and recovering from this problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To keep codel_vars_init() as efficient as possible, refine
|
|
|
|
the condition to make sure rec_inv_sqrt initial value is correct
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many thanks to Anton Mich for discovering the issue and suggesting
|
|
|
|
a fix.
