It was meant to be applied incrementally on top of the other. > I'm wondering how the code in xs_tcp_state_change() that sets > reestablish_timeout back to XS_TCP_INIT_REEST_TO managed to not cause trouble. > > > Can I propose a patch too ? mine looks quite similar to your second patch, > but with the reestablish_timeout logic hopefully simplified... > This would cause a different regression. The current code is there in order to ensure that we apply that exponential backoff if and only if the _server_ closes the TCP connection since that would usually indicate that it is trying to deal with a resource congestion issue. We don't need to back off if we were the ones closing the socket. The issue of UDP exponential backoff is moot: the UDP code doesn't use xs_connect() at all.
