greetings!

this is my first creation of a patch for the linux
kernel. if you have time, could you please take a look
at it and give me some feedback.

this patch creates a syn_cache for caching TCP options
when syn_cookies are in use (by default, all TCP
options are lost when using syncookies).

any feedback on the implementation of this cache would
also be appreciated.

if anybody's interested, i have also written a paper
on this project.

It might be good if you could send a link to the paper. The point of syncookies is to allocate zero state on a syn (storing it entirely in the ISN). I didn't read the patch that carefully yet, but it looks like this is allocating memory on a syn.
