Hi,

For the patches in
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bbr-dev/8pgyOyUavvY there were
two main features:

(1) Higher throughput for wifi and other paths with aggregation

(2) Lower queuing delays by frequently draining excess in-flight data


For the patches related to (1), that functionality is already in
davem/net-next and torvalds/linux, as of recently, and those patches
will be in Linux 5.1. We were waiting until Linux 5.1 is released to
announce that on this e-mail list. But since it came up anyway, we may
as well mention it. ;-)


For the patches related to (2), that functionality is still undergoing
testing on YouTube and elsewhere.


If you want to apply the original patches from
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bbr-dev/8pgyOyUavvY  then you
can apply them on top of the Linux commit:

18845557fd6f

from March 2018. That's where they were originally generated.


best,

neal

I tried a couple different tags in https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git but would always get conflicts that I didn't feel comfortable resolving. Does anyone have a suggestion / commit hash to apply them to?
