conditional (tcp_compat_42). The kernel config option TCP_COMPAT_42
will still enable this by default, or disable this by default if the
option is not included (i.e. current behavior). This will be made a
sysctl soon.
code, as clarified in the TCPIMPL WG meeting at IETF #41: If the SYN
(active open) or SYN,ACK (passive open) was retransmitted, the initial
congestion window for the first slow start of that connection must be
one segment.
RTO estimation changes. Under some circumstances it would return a value
of 0, while the old Van Jacobson RTO code would return a minimum of 3.
This would result in 12 retransmissions, each 1 second apart.
This takes care of those instances, and ensures that t_rttmin is
used everywhere as a lower bound.
- When running the slow timers, skip PCBs in LISTEN state.
- When processing the persist timer, drop the connection if the connection
idle time exceeds the maximum backoff for retransmit. Part of
kern/2335 (pete@daemon.net).
The sysctl'able variable "tcp_init_win", when set to 0, selects an
auto-tuning algorithm for selecting the initial window, based on transmit
segment size, per discussion in the IETF tcpimpl working group.
Default initial window is still 1 segment, but will soon become 2 segments,
per discussion in tcpimpl.
in tcp_output(), and it will only be cleared in tcp_output() if the ACK was
transmitted sucessfully. Also, don't count delayed ACKs here, let tcp_output()
count them.

o Add declaration to all architectures.
o Clean up copyright message in rnd.c, rnd.h, and rndpool.c to include
that this code is derived in part from Ted Tyso's linux code.
easily, and so that the original (insque/remque) logic can be effectively
mimiced. (This fixes a bug in the previous set of list changes.)
also (since terminator is no longer null) reinstate uninitted list checks,
but mark them XXX.
* Convert several data structures to use queue.h.
* Split in_pcbnotify() into two parts; one for notifying a specific PCB, and
one for notifying all PCBs for a particular foreign address.
