net: tcp: add per route congestion control
This work adds the possibility to define a per route/destination congestion control algorithm. Generally, this opens up the possibility for a machine with different links to enforce specific congestion control algorithms with optimal strategies for each of them based on their network characteristics, even transparently for a single application listening on all links. For our specific use case, this additionally facilitates deployment of DCTCP, for example, applications can easily serve internal traffic/dsts in DCTCP and external one with CUBIC. Other scenarios would also allow for utilizing e.g. long living, low priority background flows for certain destinations/routes while still being able for normal traffic to utilize the default congestion control algorithm. We also thought about a per netns setting (where different defaults are possible), but given its actually a link specific property, we argue that a per route/destination setting is the most natural and flexible. The administrator can utilize this through ip-route(8) by appending "congctl [lock] <name>", where <name> denotes the name of a congestion control algorithm and the optional lock parameter allows to enforce the given algorithm so that applications in user space would not be allowed to overwrite that algorithm for that destination. The dst metric lookups are being done when a dst entry is already available in order to avoid a costly lookup and still before the algorithms are being initialized, thus overhead is very low when the feature is not being used. While the client side would need to drop the current reference on the module, on server side this can actually even be avoided as we just got a flat-copied socket clone. Joint work with Florian Westphal.
