Eric Dumazet a7a2563064 tcp: mitigate scheduling jitter in EDT pacing model
In commit fefa569a9d ("net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers
drifts") we added a mitigation for scheduling jitter in fq packet scheduler.

This patch does the same in TCP stack, now it is using EDT model.

Note that this mitigation is valid for both external (fq packet scheduler)
or internal TCP pacing.

This uses the same strategy than the above commit, allowing
a time credit of half the packet currently sent.

Consider following case :

An skb is sent, after an idle period of 300 usec.
The air-time (skb->len/pacing_rate) is 500 usec
Instead of setting the pacing timer to now+500 usec,
it will use now+min(500/2, 300) -> now+250usec

This is like having a token bucket with a depth of half
an skb.

Tested:

tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root pfifo_fast

Before
netperf -P0 -H remote -- -q 1000000000 # 8000Mbit
540000 262144 262144    10.00    7710.43

After :
netperf -P0 -H remote -- -q 1000000000 # 8000 Mbit
540000 262144 262144    10.00    7999.75   # Much closer to 8000Mbit target

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
