Detailed Description

Tcp sender buffer.


The class keeps track of all data that the application wishes to transmit to the other end. When the data is acknowledged, it is removed from the buffer. The buffer has a maximum size, and data is not saved if the amount exceeds the limit. Packets can be added to the class through the method Add(). An important thing to remember is that all the data managed is strictly sequential. It can be divided into blocks, but all the data follow a strict ordering. That order is managed through SequenceNumber.

In other words, this buffer contains numbered bytes (e.g., 1,2,3), and the class is allowed to return only ordered (using "<" as operator) subsets (e.g. 1,2 or 2,3 or 1,2,3).

The data structure underlying this is composed by two distinct packet lists. The first (SentList) is initially empty, and it contains the packets returned by the method CopyFromSequence. The second (AppList) is initially empty, and it contains the packets coming from the applications, but that are not transmitted yet as segments. To discover how the chunks are managed and retrieved from these lists, check CopyFromSequence documentation.

The head of the data is represented by m_firstByteSeq, and it is returned by HeadSequence(). The last byte is returned by TailSequence(). In this class, we also store the size (in bytes) of the packets inside the SentList in the variable m_sentSize.

The SACK information is usually saved in a data structure referred as scoreboard. In this implementation, the scoreboard is developed on top of the existing classes. In particular, instead of keeping raw pointers to packets in TcpTxBuffer we added the capability to store some flags associated with every segment sent. This is done through the use of the class TcpTxItem: instead of storing a list of packets, we store a list of TcpTxItem. Each item has different flags (check the corresponding documentation) and maintaining the scoreboard is a matter of travelling the list and set the SACK flag on the corresponding segment sent.

An item (that represent a segment in flight) is not considered in flight anymore when it is marked lost or sacked. A sacked item represents an item which is received by the other end, but it is still impossible to delete from the list because other pieces are missing at the other end. A lost item never reached the other end, and retransmission is probably needed. Other properties are retransmitted, that indicates if an item was retransmitted, and the sequence number of the first byte of the packet. When a segment is sent for the first time, only the sequence number is set, and all the remaining properties are set to false. If an item is explicitly sacked by the receiver, we mark it as such. Each time we receive updated sack information from the other end, we perform a check to evaluate the segments that can be lost (

See also
UpdateLostCount), and we set the flags accordingly.

Since this class manages all the output segments and the scoreboard, we can do calculations about the number of bytes in flights. Earlier versions of this class used algorithms copied from RFC 6675. They were inefficient because they required a complete walk into the list of sent segments each time a simple question, such as "Is this sequence lost?" or "How many bytes are in flight?". Therefore, the class has been updated keeping in consideration the RFCs (including RFC 4898) and the Linux operating system. As a reference, we kept the older methods for calculating the bytes in flight and if a segment is lost, renaming them as "RFC" version of the methods. To have a look how the calculations are made, please see BytesInFlight method.

After the sender receives a new SACK block, it updates the amount of segment that it considers as lost, following the specifications made in RFC 6675 (for more detail please see the method UpdateLostCount). In case of SACKless connection, the TcpSocketImplementation should provide hints through the MarkHeadAsLost and AddRenoSack methods.

The method walk the list of the sent segment until it finds a segment that was not accounted in the sackedOut count. The head will never be included. To reset the information added with this function (e.g., after an RTO) please use ResetRenoSack.

The method DiscardUpTo, when invoked, will make sure to properly clean any flag on the discarded item. As example, if the implementation discard an item that is marked as sacked, the sackedOut count is decreased accordingly.

sentsize is SND.NXT-SND.UNA, retrans is the number of retransmitted segments. leftOut is the number of segment that left the network without being ACKed:

$leftOut = sacked_out + lost_out$

◆ CopyFromSequence()

TcpTxItem * ns3::TcpTxBuffer::CopyFromSequence ( uint32_t  numBytes,
const SequenceNumber32 seq 
)

Copy data from the range [seq, seq+numBytes) into a packet.

In the following, we refer to the block [seq, seq+numBytes) simply as "block". We check the boundary of the block, and divide the possibilities in three cases:

  • the block have already been transmitted (managed in GetTransmittedSegment)
  • the block have not been transmitted yet (managed in GetNewSegment)

The last case is when the block is partially transmitted and partially not transmitted. We trick this case by requesting the portion not transmitted from GetNewSegment, and then calling GetTransmittedSegment with the full block range.

Parameters
numBytesnumber of bytes to copy
seqstart sequence number to extract
Returns
a pointer to the TcpTxItem that corresponds to what requested. Please do not delete the pointer, nor modify Packet data or sequence numbers.

◆ GetPacketFromList()

TcpTxItem * ns3::TcpTxBuffer::GetPacketFromList ( PacketList list,
const SequenceNumber32 startingSeq,
uint32_t  numBytes,
const SequenceNumber32 requestedSeq,
bool *  listEdited = nullptr 
) const
private


Get a block (which is returned as Packet) from a list

This function extract a block [requestedSeq,numBytes) from the list, which starts at startingSeq.

The cases we need to manage are two, and they are depicted in the following image:

                     |------|     |----|     |----|
              list = |      | --> |    | --> |    |
                     |------|     |----|     |----|

                     ^      ^
                     | ^ ^  |         (1)
                   seq | |  seq + numBytes
                       | |
                       | |
                    seq   seq + numBytes     (2)

The case 1 is easy to manage: the requested block is exactly a packet already stored. If one value (seq or seq + numBytes) does not align to a packet boundary, or when both values does not align (case 2), it is a bit more complex.

Basically, we have two possible operations:

  • fragment : split an existing packet in two
  • merge : merge two existing packets in one

and we reduce case (2) to case (1) through sequentially applying fragment or merge. For instance:

    |------|
    |      |
    |------|

    ^ ^  ^ ^
    | |  | |
start |  | |
      |  | end
     seq |
         seq + numBytes

To reduce to case (1), we need to perform two fragment operations:

  • fragment (start, seq)
  • fragment (seq + numBytes, end)

After these operations, the requested block is exactly the resulting packet. Merge operation is required when the requested block span over two (or more) existing packets.

While this could be extremely slow in the worst possible scenario (one big packet which is split in small packets for transmission, and merged for re-transmission) that scenario is unlikely during a TCP transmission (since MSS can change, but it is stable, and retransmissions do not happen for each segment).

Parameters
listList to extract block from
startingSeqStarting sequence of the list
numBytesBytes to extract, starting from requestedSeq
requestedSeqRequested sequence
listEditedoutput parameter which indicates if the list has been edited
Returns
the item that contains the right packet

◆ UpdateLostCount()

void ns3::TcpTxBuffer::UpdateLostCount ( )
private

Update the lost count.

Reset lost to 0, then walk the sent list looking for lost segments. We have two possible algorithms for detecting lost packets:

  • RFC 6675 algorithm, which says that if more than "Dupack thresh" (e.g., 3) sacked segments above the sequence, then we can consider the sequence lost;
  • NewReno (RFC6582): in Recovery we assume that one segment is lost (classic Reno). While we are in Recovery and a partial ACK arrives, we assume that one more packet is lost (NewReno).

The {New}Reno cases, for now, are managed in TcpSocketBase through the call to MarkHeadAsLost. This function is, therefore, called after a SACK option has been received, and updates the lost count. It can be probably optimized by not walking the entire list, but a subset.
