https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59971

           Summary: tcp_info::tcpi_last_ack_recv = 0xFFFFFFF6
           Product: Networking
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.37
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: shemminger@...ux-foundation.org
        ReportedBy: _kobold@....net
        Regression: No


tcp_info::tcpi_last_ack_recv becomes "negative" sometimes. -10 msec or 1 jiffy
in my case. Probably due to lack of synchronization in the kernel.

struct tcp_info tinfo = {0};
socklen_t len = sizeof(tinfo);
if (getsockopt(thesocket, SOL_TCP, TCP_INFO, (void*)&tinfo, &len) == 0)
    printf("%u\n", tinfo.tcpi_last_ack_recv);
