Implementations are >required to track a negative window after settings changes.. One nit related to windows: Window updates are 31 bits, but we don't put a bound on the actual window size. At the very least we should write that there is no guarantee that a 32bit signed integer will be enough to hold the window value. But simpler and clearer would be to mandate that "window sizes are 64 signed values" and be done with it. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
