Detailed Description

Macro Definition Documentation

TCP_OPTION_END

#define TCP_OPTION_END   0

End of TCP options list.

Definition at line 36 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_NOP

#define TCP_OPTION_NOP   1

TCP option pad.

Definition at line 39 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_MSS

#define TCP_OPTION_MSS   2

Code for the TCP MSS option.

Definition at line 55 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_WS

#define TCP_OPTION_WS   3

Code for the TCP window scale option.

Definition at line 71 of file tcp.h.

TCP_RX_WINDOW_SCALE

#define TCP_RX_WINDOW_SCALE   9

Advertised TCP window scale.

Using a scale factor of 2**9 provides for a maximum window of 32MB, which is sufficient to allow Gigabit-speed transfers with a 200ms RTT. The minimum advertised window is 512 bytes, which is still less than a single packet.

Definition at line 80 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_SACK_PERMITTED

#define TCP_OPTION_SACK_PERMITTED   4

Code for the TCP selective acknowledgement permitted option.

Definition at line 95 of file tcp.h.

TCP_SACK_MAX

#define TCP_SACK_MAX   3

Maximum number of selective acknowledgement blocks.

This allows for the presence of the TCP timestamp option.

Definition at line 113 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_SACK

#define TCP_OPTION_SACK   5

Code for the TCP selective acknowledgement option.

Definition at line 122 of file tcp.h.

TCP_OPTION_TS

#define TCP_OPTION_TS   8

Code for the TCP timestamp option.

Definition at line 139 of file tcp.h.
