REDUCING ROUND-TRIP TIMES FOR TCP COMMUNICATIONS |
| 摘要 |
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that processes network packets. Upon receiving a first Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header for a first TCP segment from a network link, the system immediately provides a portion of the first TCP header to a transport layer prior to receiving all payload data for the first TCP segment. Next, the system uses the transport layer to transmit a first acknowledgment of the first TCP segment to the network link, wherein the first acknowledgment reduces a round-trip time (RTT) associated with the first TCP segment. |

1. A computer-implemented method for processing network packets, comprising:
upon receiving a first Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header for a first TCP segment from a network link, immediately providing a portion of the first TCP header to a transport layer prior to receiving all payload data for the first TCP segment; and using the transport layer to transmit a first acknowledgment of the first TCP segment to the network link, wherein the first acknowledgment reduces a round-trip time (RTT) associated with the first TCP segment. |
