Modular TCP Congestion Control for FreeBSD	A FreeBSD kernel patch that adds support for modularised TCP congestion control algorithms. Current: v0.9.2, released 2009-04-09 Ongoing development of the patch is occurring in the tcp_cc_8.x and tcp_cc_7.x project branches within the FreeBSD Subversion repository. The aim is to merge the work into the main FreeBSD source tree as soon as it is ready. This work is therefore in progress, and the snapshots available below are not guaranteed to be up to date or safe for general use. Version 0.9.2, released 2009-04-09 patch for FreeBSD 8-CURRENT patch for FreeBSD 7-STABLE Version 0.9.1, released 2007-12-18 patch for FreeBSD 7-CURRENT (historical only, do not use) patch documentation
H-TCP Congestion Control Algorithm	A FreeBSD loadable kernel module that implements the H-TCP congestion control algorithm. Current: v0.10, released 2009-04-09 Version 0.10, released 2009-04-09 source (requires the CAIA modular congestion control patch v0.9.2) readme Version 0.9, released 2007-12-18 source (requires the CAIA modular congestion control patch v0.9.1)
SIFTR (Statistical Information For TCP Research)	A FreeBSD kernel module that logs statistics on active TCP connections to a file. Current: v1.2.1, released 2009-04-30 See the included README for detailed information. A technical report on the performance characteristics of the module is available from the papers page. Version 1.2.1, released 2009-04-30 source readme changelog Version 1.2.0, released 2009-04-08 source Version 1.1.5, released 2007-12-18 source Version 1.1.4, released 2007-10-09 source Version 1.1.3, released 2007-09-06 source Version 1.1.2, released 2007-09-06 source Version 1.1.1, released 2007-08-29 source Version 1.0.1, released 2007-06-27 source
Deterministic Packet Discard	A patch against FreeBSD's ipfw/dummynet tools to add configurable, deterministic packet loss capabilities to dummynet pipes. Current: v2.0, released 2008-10-06 Version 2.0, released 2008-10-06 A patch against FreeBSD's ipfw/dummynet tools to add configurable, deterministic packet loss capabilities to dummynet pipes. 8.x patch readme Version 1.0, released 2007-10-09 A FreeBSD kernel module that can discard specific TCP packets from a flow for testing purposes. See the included README for detailed information. source (historical only, do not use) readme
Iperf Patch	A patch for the Iperf network benchmarking tool that provides greater and more accurate contol over buffer sizes. Current: v1.1, released 2007-08-27 (Iperf v2.0.2) and 2009-04-08 (Iperf v2.0.4) Version 1.1, released 2007-08-27 (Iperf v2.0.2) and 2009-04-08 (Iperf v2.0.4) patch for Iperf v2.0.2 patch for Iperf v2.0.4 readme
SIFTR_CDEV	A prototype FreeBSD kernel module that illustrates the kernel sharing data with user space via a /dev device Current: v1.0, released 2007-06-22 Version 1.0, released 2007-06-22 source readme
