It is currenty possible to switch the TCP congestion control algorithm
in non-initial network namespaces:
unshare -U --map-root --net --fork --pid --mount-proc
echo "reno" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
works just fine. But currently non-initial network namespaces have no
way of kowing which congestion algorithms are available or allowed other
than through trial and error by writing the names of the algorithms into
the aforementioned file.
Since we already allow changing the congestion algorithm in non-initial
network namespaces by exposing the tcp_congestion_control file there is
no reason to not also expose the
tcp_{allowed,available}_congestion_control files to non-initial network
namespaces. After this change a container with a separate network
namespace will show:
root@f1:~# ls -al /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_* | grep congestion
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 19 11:54 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_allowed_congestion_control
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 19 11:54 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_available_congestion_control
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 19 11:54 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control

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.
