Under certain circumstances involving the persist state, it is
possible for the receive side's tp->rcv_nxt to advance beyond its
tp->rcv_adv. This causes (tp->rcv_adv - tp->rcv_nxt) to become
negative. However, in the code affected by this fix, that difference
was interpreted as an unsigned number by max(). Since it was
negative, it was taken as a huge unsigned number. The effect was
to cause the receiver to believe that its receive window had negative
size, thereby rejecting all received segments including ACKs. As
the test case shows, this led to fruitless retransmissions and
eventually to a dropped connection. Even connections using the
loopback interface could be dropped. The fix substitutes the signed
imax() for the unsigned max() function.

The RTF_BROADCAST flag is used by ip_output() to eliminate a call to
in_broadcast() in a common case; this gives about 1% in our packet-generation

represent a forwardable address if:

More to come...
time ago. I left in Garrett's one, because his was in the 4.4-Lite-2
location, making any diffs just that little bit smaller.
I presume this choice means that netstat needs to be recompiled before
"netstat -s" will give a meaningful answer on tcp stats.
and gated on `options MTUDISC' in the source. It is also practically
untested becausse (sniff!) I don't have easy access to a network with
an MTU of less than an Ethernet. If you have a small MTU network,
please try it and tell me if it works!
to be sent, just clean up and return ENOBUFS rather than silently
proceeding without sending any of the data. This makes it consistent
with the `#ifdef notyet' case immediately above.

Garrett,
Here are some patches for the rate limiting code. It should be faster,
and in particular it doesn't leak malloc'd memory any more when rate_limit'ing
a phyint.
It now uses an mbuf chain at each vif, instead of the static queue array.
This means that the MAXQSIZE is now variable per vif (although there is no
interface to change it other than a debugger); this is an area for more
experimentation.
