From 6e9250f59ef9efb932c84850cd221f22c2a03c4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2015 16:23:49 -0700 Subject: tcp: add TCP_CC_INFO socket option Some Congestion Control modules can provide per flow information, but current way to get this information is to use netlink. Like TCP_INFO, let's add TCP_CC_INFO so that applications can issue a getsockopt() if they have a socket file descriptor, instead of playing complex netlink games. Sample usage would be : union tcp_cc_info info; socklen_t len = sizeof(info); if (getsockopt(fd, SOL_TCP, TCP_CC_INFO, &info, &len) == -1) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Yuchung Cheng Cc: Neal Cardwell Acked-by: Neal Cardwell Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: David S.
