Sometimes the answer "you can't have A, but at least here's B" is more than an exercise; it educates the community. By not providing either answer, we have continued to drag this issue around the block for far too long -- and spent far too many cycles in this and other WGs seeking solutions. > The current draft solely gives > SACK + MPTCP + TCP-AO as an example, but is that really something that > can't be done today? Current total for SYN options in widespread concurrent use (as already described in sec 6.4): 2 SACK permitted 10 timestamp 3 window scale 4 MSS ------------------ 11 bytes The current DO field is 4 bits, with a max value of 15 = 60 bytes for the total header, less 20 for the base TCP header which leaves 40 for options. So let's see what happens when we add: 11 widespread basic options 16 TCP-AO 20 MPTCP -------------------- 47 That's more than 40. > Adding more complexity to the TCP stack (with the potential for more > vulnerabilities) is only worthwhile if there's an identifiable benefit, > otherwise few production stacks are going to implement it anyway. There are two identifiable benefits: 1) explain the ways we already know we can't extend the SYN so we stop wasting time trying them repeatedly (i.e., education) 2) provide a solution for the other segments, so that can be used - e.g., for large SACK responses 3) educate the community Joe
