Need Help in TCP part

[Himanshu Sharma <himanshu@ee.iitb.ac.in>]

Hi all ,

I am trying to understand the TCP implementation in the kernel and I am
struck in the congestion handling part.

I have read that when a situation of congestion occours the RED/ECN
implementation decreases the CW and then delays the packet transmission by
some random time.

I have observed the code for the reduction in CW by CWR but couldn't get a
sign of the delay part. I actually want to know where is the retransmit
timer handler.

I will be very greatful for any help.

regards ,

Himanshu Sharma
