From: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2008 06:40:11 +0100 > This patch limits feature-negotiation to the connnection-setup phase: > > 1. Although it is theoretically possible to perform feature negotiation at any > time (and RFC 4340 supports this), in practice this is prohibitively complex, > as it requires to put traffic on hold for each new negotiation. > 2. As a byproduct of restricting feature negotiation to connection setup, the > feature-negotiation retransmit timer is no longer required. This part is now > mapped onto the protocol-level retransmission. > Details indicating why timers are no longer needed can be found on > http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\ > implementation_notes.html > > This patch disables anytime negotiation, subsequent patches work out full > feature negotiation support for connection setup. > > Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Applied. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dccp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
