tcp: add TCP_CC_INFO socket option
Some Congestion Control modules can provide per flow information, but current way to get this information is to use netlink. Like TCP_INFO, let's add TCP_CC_INFO so that applications can issue a getsockopt() if they have a socket file descriptor, instead of playing complex netlink games. Sample usage would be : union tcp_cc_info info; socklen_t len = sizeof(info); if (getsockopt(fd, SOL_TCP, TCP_CC_INFO, &info, &len) == -1) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
