    TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS · 519855c5
    William Allen Simpson authored
    Define sysctl (tcp_cookie_size) to turn on and off the cookie option
    default globally, instead of a compiled configuration option.
    
    Define per socket option (TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS) for setting constant
    data values, retrieving variable cookie values, and other facilities.
    
    Move inline tcp_clear_options() unchanged from net/tcp.h to linux/tcp.h,
    near its corresponding struct tcp_options_received (prior to changes).
    
    This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old)
    patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original
    author (Adam Langley):
    
        http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586
    
    These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement
    additional features.
    
    Requires:
       net: TCP_MSS_DEFAULT, TCP_MSS_DESIRED
