The fastpath in tcp_output tries to send out
full segments, and avoid sending partial segments by
comparing against the static t_maxseg variable.
That value does not consider tcp options like timestamps,
while the initial window calculation is using
the correct dynamic tcp_maxseg() function.
Due to this interaction, the last, full size segment
is considered too short and not sent out immediately.

This lets a VXLAN pseudo-interface take advantage of hardware checksumming (tx
and rx), TSO, and RSS if the NIC is capable of performing these operations on
inner VXLAN traffic.
A VXLAN interface inherits the capabilities of its vxlandev interface if one is
specified or of the interface that hosts the vxlanlocal address. If other
interfaces will carry traffic for that VXLAN then they must have the same
hardware capabilities.
On transmit, if_vxlan verifies that the outbound interface has the required
capabilities and then translates the CSUM_ flags to their inner equivalents.
This tells the hardware ifnet that it needs to operate on the inner frame and
not the outer VXLAN headers.
An event is generated when a VXLAN ifnet starts. This allows hardware drivers to
configure their devices to expect VXLAN traffic on the specified incoming port.
On receive, the hardware does RSS and checksum verification on the inner frame.
if_vxlan now does a direct netisr dispatch to take full advantage of RSS. It is
not very clear why it didn't do this already.
Future work:
Rx: it should be possible to avoid the first trip up the protocol stack to get
the frame to if_vxlan just so it can decapsulate and requeue for a second trip
up the stack. The hardware NIC driver could directly call an if_vxlan receive
routine for VXLAN traffic instead.
Rx: LRO. depends on what happens with the previous item. There will have to to
be a mechanism to indicate that it's time for if_vxlan to flush its LRO state.

Remove most special treatment for ifnet TLS in the TCP stack, except
for code to avoid mixing handshakes and bulk data.
This code made heroic efforts to send down entire TLS records to
NICs. It was added to improve the PCIe bus efficiency of older TLS
offload NICs which did not keep state per-session, and so would need
to re-DMA the first part(s) of a TLS record if a TLS record was sent
in multiple TCP packets or TSOs. Newer TLS offload NICs do not need
this feature.
At Netflix, we've run extensive QoE tests which show that this feature
reduces client quality metrics, presumably because the effort to send
TLS records atomically causes the server to both wait too long to send
data (leading to buffers running dry), and to send too much data at
once (leading to packet loss).

started on congestion events, or once the congestion
avoidance phase is started, after slow-start has
completed.
When a sender is application limited for an extended
amount of time and subsequently a larger volume of data
becomes ready for sending, Cubic recalculates cwnd
with a lingering cubic epoch. This recalculation
of the cwnd can induce a massive increase in cwnd,
causing a burst of data to be sent at line rate by
the sender.
This adds a flag to reset the cubic epoch once a
session transitions from app-limited to cwnd-limited
to prevent the above effect.
