Let's just see on a diagram how the receiver can detect that the
window is large enough for the remote sender to fill the link. Here
it seems that a first criterion is that data are accumulating in
the rxbuf, indicating that the next hop doesn't consume them fast
enough. On the diagram it's visible when blue arrows (incoming data)
are more frequent than the magenta ones on average (outgoing data),
which happens when silence moments are less frequent and don't allow
the reader to catch up. It's also visible that there are two phases
alternating in the transfer:
- measure round trip time (i.e. how long it takes to restart
sending after a WU was sent after a long silence)
- measure the lowest rxbuf size during the previous round trip
It's worth noting that a window size change only has *observable* effect
after two RTT: the first RTT is to restart sending (opening or enlarging
the window), the second RTT to measure the lowest rxbuf size over the
period.
By turning the advertised window into an offset and comparing it to
the received quantity, it's possible to measure the RTT of the whole
chain (including the client possibly producing the data). Note that
when multiple streams compete for BW this can become tricky. Limiting
the window to available buffers and counting the number of sending
streams on a connection could work (i.e. split total buffers into
1+#senders, first one being used for tx).
