/*
* The TCPT_REXMT timer is used to force retransmissions.
* The TCP has the TCPT_REXMT timer set whenever segments
* have been sent for which ACKs are expected but not yet
* received. If an ACK is received which advances tp->snd_una,
* then the retransmit timer is cleared (if there are no more
* outstanding segments) or reset to the base value (if there
* are more ACKs expected). Whenever the retransmit timer goes off,
* we retransmit one unacknowledged segment, and do a backoff
* on the retransmit timer.
*
* The TCPT_PERSIST timer is used to keep window size information
* flowing even if the window goes shut. If all previous transmissions
* have been acknowledged (so that there are no retransmissions in progress),
* and the window is too small to bother sending anything, then we start
* the TCPT_PERSIST timer. When it expires, if the window is nonzero,
* we go to transmit state. Otherwise, at intervals send a single byte
* into the peer's window to force him to update our window information.
* We do this at most as often as TCPT_PERSMIN time intervals,
* but no more frequently than the current estimate of round-trip
* packet time. The TCPT_PERSIST timer is cleared whenever we receive
* a window update from the peer.
*
* The TCPT_KEEP timer is used to keep connections alive. If an
* connection is idle (no segments received) for TCPTV_KEEP_INIT amount of time,
* but not yet established, then we drop the connection. Once the connection
* is established, if the connection is idle for TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE time
* (and keepalives have been enabled on the socket), we begin to probe
* the connection. We force the peer to send us a segment by sending:
* <SEQ=SND.UNA-1><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK>
* This segment is (deliberately) outside the window, and should elicit
* an ack segment in response from the peer. If, despite the TCPT_KEEP
* initiated segments we cannot elicit a response from a peer in TCPT_MAXIDLE
* amount of time probing, then we drop the connection.
