For example, ACKs or timing information coming in on the receive thread will need to be communicated to the sending thread. This requires a non-blocking, lock free communication channel between the threads. Maybe just shared memory with memory barriers. It’s important to minimize the latency and minimize the jitter when forwarding information from the receive thread to the sending thread. For example, if you are trying to estimate a change in the one-way trip time for congestion control then jitter in this path will be a limiting factor for the congestion control algorithm. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
