Subject: TCP retransmission : how to detect from an application ?
Date: Wed, 2 Jun 2004 14:57:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200406021257.i52CvEX31840@tag.witbe.net> (raw)

Hello,

I've an application that is establishing TCP connection, and exchanges some
data.
However, from time to time, I suspect there are some packet loss, which are
corrected by the kernel (hell, TCP is reliable, isn't it :-), but I'd like
to know if an application can detect this (well, I don't want to be notified
of a packet loss once detected, but I'd like to get some stats before
closing
the connection).

Is there something possible ? Some ioctl ? Some /proc/magic-interface ?

Regards,
Paul
