jesper cfd2d3b2c6 Silby's take one on increasing FreeBSD's resistance to SYN floods:
One way we can reduce the amount of traffic we send in response to a SYN
flood is to eliminate the RST we send when removing a connection from
the listen queue.  Since we are being flooded, we can assume that the
majority of connections in the queue are bogus.  Our RST is unwanted
by these hosts, just as our SYN-ACK was.  Genuine connection attempts
will result in hosts responding to our SYN-ACK with an ACK packet.  We
will automatically return a RST response to their ACK when it gets to us
if the connection has been dropped, so the early RST doesn't serve the
genuine class of connections much.  In summary, we can reduce the number
of packets we send by a factor of two without any loss in functionality
by ensuring that RST packets are not sent when dropping a connection
from the listen queue.
