62 * The TCPT_REXMT timer is used to force retransmissions.
63 * The TCP has the TCPT_REXMT timer set whenever segments
64 * have been sent for which ACKs are expected but not yet
65 * received. If an ACK is received which advances tp->snd_una,
66 * then the retransmit timer is cleared (if there are no more
67 * outstanding segments) or reset to the base value (if there
68 * are more ACKs expected). Whenever the retransmit timer goes off,
69 * we retransmit one unacknowledged segment, and do a backoff
70 * on the retransmit timer.
72 * The TCPT_PERSIST timer is used to keep window size information
73 * flowing even if the window goes shut. If all previous transmissions
74 * have been acknowledged (so that there are no retransmissions in progress),
75 * and the window is too small to bother sending anything, then we start
76 * the TCPT_PERSIST timer. When it expires, if the window is nonzero,
77 * we go to transmit state. Otherwise, at intervals send a single byte
78 * into the peer's window to force him to update our window information.
79 * We do this at most as often as TCPT_PERSMIN time intervals,
80 * but no more frequently than the current estimate of round-trip
81 * packet time. The TCPT_PERSIST timer is cleared whenever we receive
82 * a window update from the peer.
84 * The TCPT_KEEP timer is used to keep connections alive. If an
85 * connection is idle (no segments received) for TCPTV_KEEP_INIT amount of time,
86 * but not yet established, then we drop the connection. Once the connection
87 * is established, if the connection is idle for TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE time
88 * (and keepalives have been enabled on the socket), we begin to probe
89 * the connection. We force the peer to send us a segment by sending:
90 * <SEQ=SND.UNA-1><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK>
91 * This segment is (deliberately) outside the window, and should elicit
92 * an ack segment in response from the peer. If, despite the TCPT_KEEP
93 * initiated segments we cannot elicit a response from a peer in TCPT_MAXIDLE
94 * amount of time probing, then we drop the connection.
