I've verified that the kernel actually does receive the cookie by adding a printf() to tcp_input.c just before tcp_fastopen_update_cache() is called. The kernel finds the cookie and attempts to update the cache, and then it is apparently black-holed. >> >> I'm using the test programs from https://people.freebsd.org/~pkelsey/tfo-tools/ for this purpose. > How are you using the client and server? On the server I run tfo-srv without arguments, on the client I run "tfo-client $host 22222" multiple times in quick succession. My expectation is that after the first run the cookie is retrieved and used. >> >> Server and client run on r335760 or later, with no changes to net.inet.tcp.fastopen except that server_enable was set to 1. > Is client_enable = 1? Yes (by default). - Pieter
