• [$] More accurate congestion notification for TCP

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Thu Feb 19 06:40:09 2026
    The "More Accurate Explicit Congestion Notification" (AccECN) mechanism is defined by this
    RFC draft. The Linux kernel has been gaining support for AccECN with
    TCP over the last few releases; the 7.0 release will enable it by default
    for general use. AccECN is a subtle change to how TCP works, but it has
    the potential to improve how traffic flows over both public and private networks.
