What's the TCP retransmission algorithm in Linux.

I check /proc/net/snmp,
tcpRtoAlgorithm = 0, so it means that Linux don't use MIL-STD-1778 or Van
Jacobsen's algorithm
to calculate retransmission timer??
I trace kernel code again, there has no code to set the
tcp_statistics.TcpRtoAlgorithm
I am not sure why tcpRtoAlgorithm=0 ( in MIB-II, tcpRtoAlgorithm=1 | 2 | 3 |
4 )
