TCP Fast Open (TFO) allows data to be carried in the SYN and SYN-ACK packets and consumed by the receiving end during the initial connection handshake, thus providing a saving of up to one full round trip time (RTT) compared to standard TCP requiring a three-way handshake (3WHS) to complete before data can be exchanged. The protocol change is detailed in the IETF internet draft at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-fastopen-00.txt . The research paper (http://conferences.sigcomm.org/co-next/2011/papers/1569470463.pdf) studied the performance impact of HTTP using Fast Open, based on this Linux implementation and the Chrome browser. To use Fast Open, the client application (active SYN sender) must replace connect() socket call with sendmsg() or sendto() with the new MSG_FASTOPEN flag. If the server supports Fast Open the data exchange starts at TCP handshake. Otherwise the connection will automatically fall back to conventional TCP.
