PATCH 1/1 network/dctcp: add dctcp congestion control algorithm test

The test compares cubic and dctcp congestion control algorithms performance. One of the hosts emulates packets congestion with netem loss 0.03%. Also ECN is enabled on the host, which is required for dctcp algorithm to work properly.

PATCH 1/1 network/dctcp: add dctcp congestion control algorithm test

Quoted 4 lines · Alexey Kodanev

The test compares cubic and dctcp congestion control algorithms performance. One of the hosts emulates packets congestion with netem loss 0.03%. Also ECN is enabled on the host, which is required for dctcp algorithm to work properly.

The patch applied, also added a kernel version check to exit with TCONF if kernel < 3.18.

Thanks,
Alexey
