[PATCH 4.9 38/93] tcp_bbr: introduce bbr_init_pacing_rate_from_rtt() helper

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Aug 09 2017 - 14:15:24 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 79135b89b8af304456bd67916b80116ddf03d7b6 ]

Introduce a helper to initialize the BBR pacing rate unconditionally,
based on the current cwnd and RTT estimate. This is a pure refactor,
but is needed for two following fixes.
