    TCPCT part 1e: implement socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS · e56fb50f
    William Allen Simpson authored
    Provide per socket control of the TCP cookie option and SYN/SYNACK data.
    
    This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old)
    patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original
    author (Adam Langley):

    The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce,
    instead of a user configured offset in the data.
    
    Allocations have been rearranged to avoid requiring GFP_ATOMIC.
    
    Requires:
       net: TCP_MSS_DEFAULT, TCP_MSS_DESIRED
       TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS
       TCPCT part 1d: define TCP cookie option, extend existing struct's
