The tcp_cwnd_restart function would be called if the user has enabled the
tcp_slow_start_after_idle configuration and would be triggered when the
connection is idle (like LONG RTO etc.). I think it would be great to
add a new trace event named 'tcp:tcp_cwnd_reset'; it would help people
to monitor the TCP state in a complicated network environment(like
overlay/underlay SDN in Kubernetes, etc)

Do not include code before variable declarations.

I would rather add a trace in tcp_ca_event(), this would be more generic ?

Sorry about that. I will update the code later.

I think maybe we already have the tcp_ca_event but named tcp_cong_state_set?

I am speaking of tcp_ca_event()...

For instance, tcp_cwnd_restart() calls tcp_ca_event(sk, CA_EVENT_CWND_RESTART);

tcp_set_ca_state() can only set icsk_ca_state to one value from enum
tcp_ca_state:
TCP_CA_Open, TCP_CA_Disorder, TCP_CA_CWR, TCP_CA_Recovery, TCP_CA_Loss

enum tcp_ca_event has instead:
CA_EVENT_TX_START, CA_EVENT_CWND_RESTART, CA_EVENT_COMPLETE_CWR,
CA_EVENT_LOSS, CA_EVENT_ECN_NO_CE, CA_EVENT_ECN_IS_CE

Got you means! LGTM

I will make a patch later and make a try
