| Steve's quick list of things that need finishing off: |
| [they are in no particular order and range from the trivial to the long winded] |
| |
| o Proper timeouts on each neighbour (in routing mode) rather than |
| just the 60 second On-Ethernet cache value. |
| |
| o Support for X.25 linklayer |
| |
| o Support for DDCMP link layer |
| |
| o The DDCMP device itself |
| |
| o PPP support (rfc1762) |
| |
| o Lots of testing with real applications |
| |
| o Verify errors etc. against POSIX 1003.1g (draft) |
| |
| o Using send/recvmsg() to get at connect/disconnect data (POSIX 1003.1g) |
| [maybe this should be done at socket level... the control data in the |
| send/recvmsg() calls should simply be a vector of set/getsockopt() |
| calls] |
| |
| o check MSG_CTRUNC is set where it should be. |
| |
| o Find all the commonality between DECnet and IPv4 routing code and extract |
| it into a small library of routines. [probably a project for 2.7.xx] |
| |
| o Add perfect socket hashing - an idea suggested by Paul Koning. Currently |
| we have a half-way house scheme which seems to work reasonably well, but |
| the full scheme is still worth implementing, its not not top of my list |
| right now. |
| |
| o Add session control message flow control |
| |
| o Add NSP message flow control |
| |
| o DECnet sendpages() function |
| |
| o AIO for DECnet |
