This feature lets you immediately transition to another congestion control algorithm or implementation with the same name. Once a name is updated, new connections will apply this new algorithm. The purpose is to update a customized algorithm implemented in BPF struct_ops with a new version on the flight. The following is an example of using the userspace API implemented in later BPF patches. link = bpf_map__attach_struct_ops(skel->maps.ca_update_1); ....... err = bpf_link__update_map(link, skel->maps.ca_update_2); We first load and register an algorithm implemented in BPF struct_ops, then swap it out with a new one using the same name. After that, newly created connections will apply the updated algorithm, while older ones retain the previous version already applied. This patch also takes this chance to refactor the ca validation into the new tcp_validate_congestion_control() function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
