<braunr> youpi: there are indeed historical bugs with small packets and
tcp_nodelay in linux 2.0/2.2 tcp/ip
<youpi> oh

<youpi> I was thinking about just using liblwip this afternoon, btw
<braunr> what is it ?
<braunr> hm, why not
<braunr> i would still prefer using code from netbsd
<braunr> especially now with the rump kernel project making it even easier
<youpi> well, whatever is easy to maintain up to date actually
<braunr> netbsd's focus on general portability normally makes it easy to
maintain
<braunr> the author of the rump project was able to make netbsd code run in
browsers :)
<braunr> and he actually showed clients using the networking stack on
windows, remotely (not in the same process)
<braunr> so that's very close to what we want
<youpi> indeed
<youpi> though liblwip is exactly the same portability focus :)
<braunr> apparently, for embedded systems
<youpi> but bsd's code is probably better
<youpi> yes
<braunr> i think so, more general purpose, larger user base
<youpi> I used it for the stubdomains in Xen
<youpi> (it = lwip)
<braunr> ok
