This is a request for comments. TCP-NV (New Vegas) is a major update to TCP-Vegas. An earlier version of NV was presented at 2010's LPC (slides). It is a delayed based congestion avoidance for the data center. This version has been tested within a 10G rack where the HW RTTs are 20-50us. A description of TCP-NV, including implementation and experimental results, can be found at: http://www.brakmo.org/networking/tcp-nv/TCPNV.html The current version includes many module parameters to support experimentation with the parameters.

The sysctl_tcp_nv_enable only seems to be used within the NV module. Can it be a module parameter instead of sysctl? neal
