Congestion control algorithms track PLB state and cause the connection to trigger a path change when either of the 2 conditions is satisfied: - No packets are in flight and (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_idle_rehash_rounds) - (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_rehash_rounds) A round (RTT) is marked as congested when congestion signal (ECN ce_ratio) over an RTT is greater than sysctl_tcp_plb_cong_thresh. In the event of RTO, PLB (via tcp_write_timeout()) triggers a path change and disables congestion-triggered path changes for random time between (sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec, 2*sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec) to avoid hopping onto the "connectivity blackhole". RTO-triggered path changes can still happen during this cool-off period.

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.
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.
