OK, different people seem to test different trees. In the hope to get everyone on the same page, I created several variants of this patch so they can be compared. Whoever's interested, please check out the following, and tell me how these compare:
I'm in the process of testing these patches. Base and v0 are complete and v1 is near complete with v2 to follow. I'm testing with a variety of TCP_RR and TCP_STREAM/TCP_MAERTS tests involving local guest-to-guest tests and remote host-to-guest tests. I'll post the results in the next day or two when the tests finish. Thanks, Tom
