[ruby-core:57048] [ruby-trunk - Feature #8871][Open] Server side TCP fast open

Issue #8871 has been reported by Glass_saga (Masaki Matsushita).

----------------------------------------
Feature #8871: Server side TCP fast open
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8871

Author: Glass_saga (Masaki Matsushita)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: ext
Target version: current: 2.1.0


I propose that ruby support server side TCP fast open (TFO).
TCP fast open reduces step of the handshake process.

detailed information about TCP fast open: http://lwn.net/Articles/508865/

# example

## server side

require "socket"

serv = Socket.new(Socket::AF_INET, Socket::SOCK_STREAM)
serv.setsockopt(Socket::SOL_TCP, Socket::TCP_FASTOPEN, 5)
addrinfo = Addrinfo.new(Socket.sockaddr_in(8888, "localhost"))
serv.bind(addrinfo)
serv.listen(1)

loop do
  socket, addrinfo = serv.accept
  p socket, addrinfo
  p socket.gets
end

## client side (Python)

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys, socket

HOST = "localhost"
PORT = 8888

TCP_FASTOPEN = 23
MSG_FASTOPEN = 0x20000000

s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
# sendto with MSG_FASTOPEN flag
s.sendto("Hello, world!", MSG_FASTOPEN, (HOST, PORT))
s.close()

# tcpdump result

% sudo tcpdump -i lo port 8888
