tcpcong - Measure tcp congestion state duration. Uses Linux eBPF/bcc.

       jacky gan

       this tool measures tcp sockets congestion control status duration, and prints a summary of tcp congestion
       state durations along with the number of total state changes.

       It  uses dynamic tracing of kernel tcp congestion control status updating functions,  and will need to be
       updated to match kernel changes.

       The traced functions are only called when there is  congestion  state  update,  and  therefore  have  low
       overhead.  we also use BPF map to store traced data to reduce overhead. See the OVERHEAD section for more
       details.  Since this uses BPF, only the root user can use this tool.

       Show all tcp sockets congestion status duration until Ctrl-C:
              # tcpcongestdura

       Show all tcp sockets congestion status duration every 1 second and 10 times:
              # tcpcong110

       Show only local port 3000-3006 congestion status duration every 1 second:
              # tcpcong-L3000-30061

       Show only remote port 5000-5005 congestion status duration every 1 second:
              # tcpcong-R5000-50051

       Show 1 second summaries, printed in microseconds, with timestamps:
              # tcpcong-uT1

       Show all tcp sockets congestion status duration as histograms:
              # tcpcong-d

       -L     Specify local tcp port range.

       -R     Specify remote tcp port range.

       -u     Output in microseconds.

       -d     Show congestion status duration distribution as histograms.

       Linux

       This traces the kernel tcp congestion status change functions.   As  called  rate  per  second  of  these
       functions  per  socket  is  low(<10000),  the  overhead is also expected to be negligible. If you have an
       application that will create thousands of tcp connections, then test and understand overhead before use.
