CVS commit: src/sys/netinet

[Anders Magnusson <ragge%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   ragge
Date:           Sun Jun 29 18:58:29 UTC 2003

Modified Files:
        src/sys/netinet: tcp_input.c tcp_output.c tcp_subr.c tcp_var.h

Log Message:
Add code to remember where in the send queue of mbufs the last packet was
sent from. This change avoid a linear search through all mbufs when using
large TCP windows, and therefore permit high-speed connections on long
distances.

Tested on a 1 Gigabit connection between Luleå and San Francisco, a distance
of about 15000km.  With TCP windows of just over 20 Mbytes it could keep up
with 950Mbit/s.

After discussions with Matt Thomas and Jason Thorpe.
