39  * The ERTT (Enhanced Round Trip Time) Khelp module calculates an estimate of
40  * the instantaneous TCP RTT which, for example, is used by delay-based
41  * congestion control schemes. When the module is loaded, ERTT data is
42  * calculated for each active TCP connection and encapsulated within a
43  * "struct ertt".
44  *
45  * This software was first released in 2010 by David Hayes and Lawrence Stewart
46  * whilst working on the NewTCP research project at Swinburne University of
47  * Technology's Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures, Melbourne,
48  * Australia, which was made possible in part by a grant from the Cisco
49  * University Research Program Fund at Community Foundation Silicon Valley.
50  * Testing and development was further assisted by a grant from the FreeBSD
51  * Foundation. More details are available at:
