[ Upstream commit100f946b8d] Two flags for congestion control (CC) module are added in this patch related to AccECN negotiation. First, a new flag (TCP_CONG_NEEDS_ACCECN) defines that the CC expects to negotiate AccECN functionality using the ECE, CWR and AE flags in the TCP header. Second, during ECN negotiation, ECT(0) in the IP header is used. This patch enables CC to control whether ECT(0) or ECT(1) should be used on a per-segment basis. A new flag (TCP_CONG_ECT_1_NEGOTIATION) defines the expected ECT value in the IP header by the CA when not-yet initialized for the connection. The detailed AccECN negotiaotn can be found in IETF RFC9768.

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 reStructuredText 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.
