These issues also exist in MacOSX. I use "Darwin" to mean "the MacOSX kernel", which may not be 100% accurate.

Also, there was an issue on Linux kernels before 4.9 where you needed to pass in an "int" to set the TOS byte (while at the same time you read the TOS byte as a byte). That caused my code to fail on older Linux kernels and took some time to diagnose. See https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/e895cdce683161081e3626c4f5a5c55cb72089f8 <https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/e895cdce683161081e3626c4f5a5c55cb72089f8> On newer kernels, you can set and read the TOS byte as a byte, which obviously makes a lot more sense.
