I am a grad student at Clarkson university and for a research project in network protocol I need to modify how TCP works and I figured that if it turns out well I would like to release it into the open source community. How ever I am having difficulty checking up on all the kernel jargon in the kernel and the naming schemes used. Is there a website that documents the networking part of the kernel and explained the naming scheme and the overall design. I'd prefer a website since books don't seem to cover the topic and fall out of data rather fast. However I'll take what I can get. Some explicit questions I have are: After being processed by the IP layer, what TCP function does it get handed up to? what forum does it get handed up in, a struct? If so what are the fields? ...ironically it would probably be easier to make a file system since I can find all sorts of help on VFS and other file systems...
