How can I retrieve current TCP congestion window size from the kernel? Any command or simple script?

Is there any command or script to retrieve the current TCP congestion window of a tcp connection. So suppose some communication is going on over tcp through the network interface (eg. eth0), now is there any way to dynamically (periodically) retrieve the tcp congestion window?(in Linux platform)

I recommend you to try tcpprobe. By dynamic loading tcpprobe, you can get the congestion window size.

No, because there isn't any such thing. Network interfaces don't have congestion windows. Connections do.
