Description
CongestionWindow / SmoothedRttin two CUBIC paths crashes withSTATUS_INTEGER_DIVIDE_BY_ZEROwhen an ACK or stats query arrives before the first RTT sample is recorded (SmoothedRtt == 0).cubic.c—CubicCongestionControlOnDataAcknowledged: Guard theBandwidthassignment in theNetStatsEventEnabledpath against zeroSmoothedRttcubic.c—CubicCongestionControlGetNetworkStatistics: Same guard applied to the identical patternTesting
New test
CubicTest.OnDataAcknowledged_NetStatsEventDivByZeroexercises the crash path: initializes a connection withNetStatsEventEnabled = TRUEandSmoothedRtt = 0, then fires an ACK event — previously causing a divide-by-zero, now returning cleanly.Documentation
No documentation impact.
