[lwip-devel] [bug #28288] Data after FIN in oos queue

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #28288 (project lwip):

> If we get two FINs at different sequence numbers we should

> other end might be made aware that there has been a problem and

Hm, that can happen in two cases:
a) Out-of-sequence, this case is quite easy to check, as we have both
segments to compare
b) In-sequence (i.e. the second FIN arrives in a closed state), this case is
not that easy to check as we would have to remember the seqno of the first FIN
to know it isn't a retransmission.

What do other stacks do about this? What do RFCs (or the requested comments,
if any) say about this?
