607b0b0cc9 Remove a panic(); if the zone allocator can't provide more timewait
structures, reuse the oldest one.  Also move the expiry timer from
a per-structure callout to the tcp slow timer.

340c35de6a Add a TCP TIMEWAIT state which uses less space than a fullblown TCP
control block.  Allow the socket and tcpcb structures to be freed
earlier than inpcb.  Update code to understand an inp w/o a socket.

701bec5a38 Introduce two new sysctl's:
net.inet.tcp.rexmit_min (default 3 ticks equiv)

    This sysctl is the retransmit timer RTO minimum,
    specified in milliseconds.  This value is
    designed for algorithmic stability only.

net.inet.tcp.rexmit_slop (default 200ms)

    This sysctl is the retransmit timer RTO slop
    which is added to every retransmit timeout and
    is designed to handle protocol stack overheads
    and delayed ack issues.

Note that the *original* code applied a 1-second
RTO minimum but never applied real slop to the RTO
calculation, so any RTO calculation over one second
would have no slop and thus not account for
protocol stack overheads (TCP timestamps are not
a measure of protocol turnaround!).  Essentially,
the original code made the RTO calculation almost
completely irrelevant.

Please note that the 200ms slop is debateable.
This commit is not meant to be a line in the sand,
and if the community winds up deciding that increasing
it is the correct solution then it's easy to do.
Note that larger values will destroy performance
on lossy networks while smaller values may result in
a greater number of unnecessary retransmits.

22fd54d461 I don't know how the minimum retransmit timeout managed to get set to
one second but it badly breaks throughput on networks with minor packet
loss.

Complaints by: at least two people tracked down to this.

664a31e496 Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago.  More commits to come.

c0a929b430 Change the delayed ack time from 200ms to 100ms.
This results in closer behavior to earlier versions, where the fixed
200ms timer actually resulted in a delay anywhere from 1..200ms, with
the average delay being 100ms.

9b8b58e033 Restructure TCP timeout handling:
- eliminate the fast/slow timeout lists for TCP and instead use a
    callout entry for each timer.
  - increase the TCP timer granularity to HZ
  - implement "bad retransmit" recovery, as presented in
    "On Estimating End-to-End Network Path Properties", by Allman and Paxson.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

7b40aa327d Make the misnamed tcp initial keepalive timer value (which is really the
time, in seconds, that state for non-established TCP sessions stays about)
a sysctl modifyable variable.

[part 1 of two commits, I just realized I can't play with the indices as
 I was typing this commit message.]
