Hi vlad
There are two way to send HB. One is idle-like HB which is send after HB
timer expires, the other is user initiated heartbeat.
Now the user initiated heartbeat is retranmited 10 times after send the
first one, this is correctly. But the timer expires HB is sent 11 times,
which means HB timeout 12 times.
In the [PATCH 3/4], I changed to not inc the overall_error_count when
send the first HB, so the user initiated heartbeat will retranmited 11
times.
If you disagree with the [PATCH 3/4], this patch need update.
Regards.
