[TCP]: Remove TCP Compound

Browse Source 
This reverts: f890f92104

The inclusion of TCP Compound needs to be reverted at this time
because it is not 100% certain that this code conforms to the
requirements of Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 paragraph (b).

TCP Compound is a sender-side only change to TCP that uses
a mixed Reno/Vegas approach to calculate the cwnd.

/*
* TCP Vegas congestion control
*
* This is based on the congestion detection/avoidance scheme described in
* Lawrence S. Brakmo and Larry L. Peterson.
* "TCP Vegas: End to end congestion avoidance on a global internet."
* IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, 13(8):1465--1480,
* October 1995. Available from:
* ftp://ftp.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/Papers/jsac.ps
*
* See http://www.cs.arizona.edu/xkernel/ for their implementation.
* The main aspects that distinguish this implementation from the
* Arizona Vegas implementation are:
* o We do not change the loss detection or recovery mechanisms of
* Linux in any way. Linux already recovers from losses quite well,
* using fine-grained timers, NewReno, and FACK.
* o To avoid the performance penalty imposed by increasing cwnd
* only every-other RTT during slow start, we increase during
* every RTT during slow start, just like Reno.
* o Largely to allow continuous cwnd growth during slow start,
* we use the rate at which ACKs come back as the "actual"
* rate, rather than the rate at which data is sent.
* o To speed convergence to the right rate, we set the cwnd
* to achieve the right ("actual") rate when we exit slow start.
* o To filter out the noise caused by delayed ACKs, we use the
* minimum RTT sample observed during the last RTT to calculate
* the actual rate.
* o When the sender re-starts from idle, it waits until it has
* received ACKs for an entire flight of new data before making
* a cwnd adjustment decision. The original Vegas implementation
* assumed senders never went idle.
*
*
* TCP Compound based on TCP Vegas
*
* further details can be found here:
* ftp://ftp.research.microsoft.com/pub/tr/TR-2005-86.pdf
