CC_CHD(4)                BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual                CC_CHD(4)

NAME
     cc_chd — CHD Congestion Control Algorithm

DESCRIPTION
     CHD enhances the HD algorithm implemented in cc_hd(4).  It provides tol‐
     erance to non-congestion related packet loss and improvements to coexis‐
     tence with traditional loss-based TCP flows, especially when the bottle‐
     neck link is lightly multiplexed.

     Like HD, the algorithm aims to keep network queuing delays below a par‐
     ticular threshold (queue_threshold) and decides to reduce the congestion
     window (cwnd) probabilistically based on its estimate of the network
     queuing delay.

     It differs from HD in three key aspects:

     ·   The probability of cwnd reduction due to congestion is calculated
         once per round trip time instead of each time an acknowledgement is
         received as done by cc_hd(4).

     ·   Packet losses that occur while the queuing delay is less than
         queue_threshold do not cause cwnd to be reduced.

     ·   CHD uses a shadow window to help regain lost transmission opportuni‐
         ties when competing with loss-based TCP flows.

MIB Variables
     The algorithm exposes the following tunable variables in the
     net.inet.tcp.cc.chd branch of the sysctl(3) MIB:

     queue_threshold  Queueing congestion threshold (qth) in ticks.  Default
                      is 20.

     pmax             Per RTT maximum backoff probability as a percentage.
                      Default is 50.

     qmin             Minimum queuing delay threshold (qmin) in ticks.
                      Default is 5.

     loss_fair        If 1, cwnd is adjusted using the shadow window when a
                      congestion related loss is detected.  Default is 1.

     use_max          If 1, the maximum RTT seen within the measurement period
                      is used as the basic delay measurement for the algo‐
                      rithm, otherwise a sampled RTT measurement is used.
                      Default is 1.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
     Development and testing of this software were made possible in part by
     grants from the FreeBSD Foundation and Cisco University Research Program
     Fund at Community Foundation Silicon Valley.

HISTORY
     The cc_chd congestion control module first appeared in FreeBSD 9.0.

     The module was first released in 2010 by David Hayes whilst working on
     the NewTCP research project at Swinburne University of Technology's Cen‐
     tre for Advanced Internet Architectures, Melbourne, Australia.  More
     details are available at:
