Synchronizing the two processes is indeed tricky.

Perhaps more robust is opening an initial TCP connection, with
SO_RCVTIMEO to bound the waiting time. That covers all tests in one
go.

send_tcp should not be affected, as connect will by then already have
succeeded. Also, as a reliable protocol it will internally retry,
after returning with success.

should ideally only retry on the expected errno. Unreliable datagram
sendto will succeed and initially. It will fail with error later,
after reception of an ICMP dst unreachable response.
