CONFIG_IP_SCTP Stream Control Transmission Protocol From RFC 2960 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2960.txt) "SCTP is a reliable transport protocol operating on top of a connectionless packet network such as IP. It offers the following services to its users: -- acknowledged error-free non-duplicated transfer of user data, -- data fragmentation to conform to discovered path MTU size, -- sequenced delivery of user messages within multiple streams, with an option for order-of-arrival delivery of individual user messages, -- optional bundling of multiple user messages into a single SCTP packet, and -- network-level fault tolerance through supporting of multi- homing at either or both ends of an association." This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want). The module will be called sctp.o. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. If in doubt, say N. CONFIG_SCTP_ADLER32 RCF2960 currently specifies the Adler-32 checksum algorithm for SCTP. This has been deprecated and replaced by an algorithm now referred to as crc32c. If you say Y, this will use the Adler-32 algorithm, this might be useful for interoperation with downlevel peers. If unsure, say N. CONFIG_SCTP_DBG_MSG If you say Y, this will enable verbose debugging messages. If unsure, say N. However, if you are running into problems, use this option to gather detailed trace information CONFIG_SCTP_DBG_OBJCNT If you say Y, this will enable debugging support for counting the types of objects that are currently allocated. This is useful for identifying memory leaks. If the /proc filesystem is enabled this debug information can be viewed by 'cat /proc/net/sctp/sctp_dbg_objcnt' If unsure, say N |
