[lwip-devel] [patch #9039] tcp: Avoid 3-second delay for a half-open connection

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #9039 (project lwip):

Lost part of that message:

If lwIP encounters a half-open connection (e.g. due to a restarted
application reusing the same port numbers) it will correctly send a
RST but will not resend the SYN until one retransmission timeout later
(approximately three seconds). This can increase the time taken by
lpxelinux.0 to fetch its configuration file from a few milliseconds to
around 30 seconds.
