Hi, I wrote a small dtrace script to track ECN connections on MacOS. It basically dumps the ecn_flags from the MacOS kernel to find out if ECN was successfully negotiated or not. It further counts ECN bits on incoming packets. For anyone interested (feel free to share), the code is here: https://github.com/janrueth/macos-passive-ecn-sniffer During testing I also observed a weird behavior (connections fail) between MacOS and Linux when ECN flags cause packet drops on the downlink (reverse) path. There is also a more detailed description and a packet trace of this happening in the github repository. If you have any comments, feel free to contact me. Best Jan On 9.

I am delirious with joy to be able to test this stuff again from devices more people have, and I hope y'all turn it on for a while, on ethernet/wifi and lte, get a bunch of captures and see what happens in day to day use. I would so love packet captures from many many vantage points against the worldwide flent testing network. Those of you that have root access on your iphones can also test ecn in this way.
