install its hooks in the socket in this case.
the TOE driver reports that an active open failed. toe_connect_failed is

- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.
Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

Significantly update tcp_lro for mostly two things:
1) introduce basic support for IPv6 without extension headers.
2) try hard to also get the incremental checksum updates right,
especially also in the IPv4 case for the IP and TCP header.
Move variables around for better locality, factor things out into
functions, allow checksum updates to be compiled out, ...
Leave a few comments on further things to look at in the future,
though that is not the full list.

If an IPv6 packet has extension headers the kernel needs to deal with it
itself. For the rest it can set various CSUM_XXX flags and the driver
will act on them.

Changes since 7.8.0 (from the official changelog):
- Fixed sporadic interrupt generation for associated CQ when processing
a local invalidate work request
- Changes to core scheduling to avoid starving requests from the host

- Programmed the tp tx resource limiter in function of the traffic (only
affects iWarp)
- Increased the egress NIC gather list length from 36 to 46 entries

- Run the adapter's tick at 1Hz and remove link state checks from it.
Instead, have each port check its link state. Delay the check so that
it takes place slightly after the driver is notified of a change in
link state. This is a cheap way to debounce these notifications if
many are received in rapid succession. POLL_LINK_1ST_TIME flag can
also be eliminated as a side effect of these changes.
- Do not reset the PHY when link goes down.
- Clear port's link_fault flag if the PHY indicates link is down.

The T3 ASIC can provide an incoming packet's timestamp instead of its RSS hash.
The timestamp is just a counter running off the card's clock. With a 175MHz
