Hi. New version of the userspace network stack includes sync with the simplified netchannels interface and small bug fixes. I also dropped routing table support, since userspace network stack is designed on behalf of netchannels and thus efectively single opened object operates with single source and destination peers, so there is no need to introduce unneded caches, since all needed information can be stored in the userspace network stack object itself. Unetstack contains following features: # TCP/UDP sending and receiving. # Timestamp, window scaling, MSS TCP options. # PAWS. # Slow start and congestion control. # Socket-like interface. # IP and ethernet processing code. # Complete retransmit algorithm. # Fast retransmit support. # Support for TCP listen state (peer-to-peer mode with single channel). # Netchannels interface and packet socket support. TODO list includes: * libunetstack.so or libtcp.so library interface. * SACK support Links. 1.
