This is an IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NOPUSH with an optval of 0. Can you try making a far simpler program that just does: int optval, s; s = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (s < 0) err(1, "socket"); optval = 0; if (setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NOPUSH, &optval, sizeof(optval)) < 0) err(1, "setsockopt"); and see if that breaks? -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-security@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-security-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
