Any *reliable* protocol sends more than one packet per message you send. RDM is for reliable messages > independent and possibly simultaneous RxRPC calls. From the digging > around that I did in the kernel socket code a while ago I don't see a > cleaner way of implementing it than a new SOCK_RXRPC. I disagree entirely. I've still seen no evidence you need a new type for this.
