In case of enabled packet forwarding mode, packets were forwarded in a reverse order
because of LIFO behavior of the connection event list.
The issue exposed only during high network traffic. Thus the event list started to grow
that resulted in changing the order of packets inside of groups of several packets
like the following: 3, 2, 1, 6, 5, 4, 8, 7 etc.
Remarks concerning the connection event list implementation:
* Now the queue (list) is FIFO as it should be.
* The list is singly linked.
* The list has a head pointer (inside of outer net_driver_s structure),
and a tail pointer is added into outer net_driver_s structure.
* The list item is devif_callback_s structure.
It still has two pointers to two different list chains (*nxtconn and *nxtdev).
* As before the first argument (*dev) of the list functions can be NULL,
while the other argument (*list) is effective (not NULL).
* An extra (*tail) argument is added to devif_callback_alloc()
and devif_conn_callback_free() functions.
* devif_callback_alloc() time complexity is O(1) (i.e. O(n) to fill the whole list).
* devif_callback_free() time complexity is O(n) (i.e. O(n^2) to empty the whole list).
* devif_conn_event() time complexity is O(n).
* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
net/tcp: Add logic to send probes when SO_KEEPALIVE is enabled.
net/tcp: TCP socket should not have to be connected to configure KeepAlive.
net/: Add a separate configuration to enable/disable KEEPALIVE socket options.
net/tcp: Arguments to TCP keep-alive timing functions probably should be struct timeval as are the times for other time-related socket options.
net/tcp: Fix a backward conditional
net/tcp: Add some more checks and debug output to TCP-protocol socket options.
net/tcp: Cosmetic changes to some alignment.
net/: Adds socket options needed to manage TCP-keepalive and TCP state machine logic to detect if that the remote peer is alive. Still missing the timer poll logic to send the keep-alive probes and the state machine logic to respond to probes.
