SCTP has a extension called PR-SCTP, which is implemented in BSD
and can be used to limit the number of retransmissions of a
DATA chunk to 0. The service you mention above is therefore available
in SCTP.
There is only one problem with that - you need to do a major
rewrite of your
current software to use SCTP and hope that all OSs it's supposed to
run
Porting an application from TCP or UDP should be relative simple.
Porting
a TCP based application to SCTP using the 1-to-1 style socket API is
straight forward.
on/with have SCTP support (and it's enabled).
I would guess that more systems support SCTP than the modified version
of TCP.
