Merge branch 'tcp_fastopen_server'
Jerry Chu says:
====================
This patch series provides the server (passive open) side code
for TCP Fast Open. Together with the earlier client side patches
it completes the TCP Fast Open implementation.
The server side Fast Open code accepts data carried in the SYN
packet with a valid Fast Open cookie, and passes it to the
application right away, allowing application to send back response
data, all before TCP's 3-way handshake finishes.
A simple cookie scheme together with capping the number of
outstanding TFO requests (still in TCP_SYN_RECV state) to a limit
per listener forms the main line of defense against spoofed SYN
attacks.
For more details about TCP Fast Open see our IETF internet draft
at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-fastopen-01.txt
and a research paper at
http://conferences.sigcomm.org/co-next/2011/papers/1569470463.pdf
A prototype implementation was first developed by Sivasankar
Radhakrishnan (sivasankar@cs.ucsd.edu).
A patch based on an older version of Linux kernel has been
undergoing internal tests at Google for the past few months.
