52 * The TCPT_REXMT timer is used to force retransmissions.
53 * The TCP has the TCPT_REXMT timer set whenever segments
54 * have been sent for which ACKs are expected but not yet
55 * received.  If an ACK is received which advances tp->snd_una,
56 * then the retransmit timer is cleared (if there are no more
57 * outstanding segments) or reset to the base value (if there
58 * are more ACKs expected).  Whenever the retransmit timer goes off,
59 * we retransmit one unacknowledged segment, and do a backoff
60 * on the retransmit timer.
61 *
62 * The TCPT_PERSIST timer is used to keep window size information
63 * flowing even if the window goes shut.  If all previous transmissions
64 * have been acknowledged (so that there are no retransmissions in progress),
65 * and the window is too small to bother sending anything, then we start
66 * the TCPT_PERSIST timer.  When it expires, if the window is nonzero,
67 * we go to transmit state.  Otherwise, at intervals send a single byte
68 * into the peer's window to force him to update our window information.
69 * We do this at most as often as TCPT_PERSMIN time intervals,
70 * but no more frequently than the current estimate of round-trip
71 * packet time.  The TCPT_PERSIST timer is cleared whenever we receive
72 * a window update from the peer.
73 *
74 * The TCPT_KEEP timer is used to keep connections alive.  If an
75 * connection is idle (no segments received) for TCPTV_KEEP_INIT amount of time,
76 * but not yet established, then we drop the connection.  Once the connection
77 * is established, if the connection is idle for TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE time
78 * (and keepalives have been enabled on the socket), we begin to probe
79 * the connection.  We force the peer to send us a segment by sending:
80 *	<SEQ=SND.UNA-1><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK>
81 * This segment is (deliberately) outside the window, and should elicit
82 * an ack segment in response from the peer.  If, despite the TCPT_KEEP
83 * initiated segments we cannot elicit a response from a peer in TCPT_MAXIDLE
84 * amount of time probing, then we drop the connection.
