In this +situation, the sender adds 1 to TcpExtTCPSACKReneging. A receiver +could drop a packet which has been acknowledged by SACK, although it is +unusual, it is allowed by the TCP protocol. The sender doesn't really +know what happened on the receiver side. The sender just waits until +the RTO expires for this packet, then the sender assumes this packet +has been dropped by the receiver. + +* TcpExtTCPRenoReorder +The reorder packet is detected by fast recovery. It would only be used +if SACK is disabled. The fast recovery algorithm detects recorder by +the duplicate ACK number. E.g., if retransmission is triggered, and +the original retransmitted packet is not lost, it is just out of +order, the receiver would acknowledge multiple times, one for the +retransmitted packet, another for the arriving of the original out of +order packet. Thus the sender would find more ACks than its +expectation, and the sender knows out of order occurs. + +* TcpExtTCPTSReorder +The reorder packet is detected when a hole is filled. E.g., assume the +sender sends packet 1,2,3,4,5, and the receiving order is +1,2,4,5,3. When the sender receives the ACK of packet 3 (which will +fill the hole), two conditions will let TcpExtTCPTSReorder increase +1: (1) if the packet 3 is not re-retransmitted yet. (2) if the packet +3 is retransmitted but the timestamp of the packet 3's ACK is earlier +than the retransmission timestamp. + +* TcpExtTCPSACKReorder +The reorder packet detected by SACK. The SACK has two methods to +detect reorder: (1) DSACK is received by the sender. It means the +sender sends the same packet more than one times. And the only reason +is the sender believes an out of order packet is lost so it sends the +packet again. (2) Assume packet 1,2,3,4,5 are sent by the sender, and +the sender has received SACKs for packet 2 and 5, now the sender +receives SACK for packet 4 and the sender doesn't retransmit the +packet yet, the sender would know packet 4 is out of order. The TCP +stack of kernel will increase TcpExtTCPSACKReorder for both of the +above scenarios. + + +DSACK +===== +The DSACK is defined in `RFC2883`_. The receiver uses DSACK to report +duplicate packets to the sender. There are two kinds of +duplications: (1) a packet which has been acknowledged is +duplicate. (2) an out of order packet is duplicate. The TCP stack +counts these two kinds of duplications on both receiver side and +sender side. + +.. _RFC2883 : https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2883 + +* TcpExtTCPDSACKOldSent +The TCP stack receives a duplicate packet which has been acked, so it +sends a DSACK to the sender. + +* TcpExtTCPDSACKOfoSent +The TCP stack receives an out of order duplicate packet, so it sends a +DSACK to the sender. + +* TcpExtTCPDSACKRecv +The TCP stack receives a DSACK, which indicate an acknowledged +duplicate packet is received. + +* TcpExtTCPDSACKOfoRecv +The TCP stack receives a DSACK, which indicate an out of order +duplciate packet is received. + examples ======= @@ -945,3 +1093,98 @@ Both TcpExtListenOverflows and TcpExtListenDrops were 4.
