Subject: Re: [net-next-2.6 PATCH v8 7/7] TCPCT part 1g: Responder Cookie =>
 Initiator

Parse incoming TCP_COOKIE option(s).

Calculate <SYN,ACK> TCP_COOKIE option.

Send optional <SYN,ACK> data.

This is a significantly revised implementation of an earlier (year-old)
patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original
author (Adam Langley):

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586

Requires:
   TCPCT part 1a: add request_values parameter for sending SYNACK
   TCPCT part 1b: generate Responder Cookie secret
   TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS
   TCPCT part 1d: define TCP cookie option, extend existing struct's
   TCPCT part 1e: implement socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS
   TCPCT part 1f: Initiator Cookie => Responder
