>Description:
A comment in tcp_input() (in sys/netinet/tcp_input.c) reads:
/*
* Since we've covered the SYN-SENT and SYN-RECEIVED states above
* we must be in a synchronized state. RFC791 states (under RST
* generation) that any unacceptable segment (an out-of-order SYN
* qualifies) received in a synchronized state must elicit only an
* empty acknowledgment segment ... and the connection remains in
* the same state.
*/
Of course, that's 793, not 791 (and "Reset" is spelled out in the RFC section header).
>How-To-Repeat:
cat sys/netinet/tcp_input.c
>Fix:
s/791/793/
s/RST generation/Reset Generation/
