                     32:  * The TCPT_REXMT timer is used to force retransmissions.
                     33:  * The TCP has the TCPT_REXMT timer set whenever segments
                     34:  * have been sent for which ACKs are expected but not yet
                     35:  * received.  If an ACK is received which advances tp->snd_una,
                     36:  * then the retransmit timer is cleared (if there are no more
                     37:  * outstanding segments) or reset to the base value (if there
                     38:  * are more ACKs expected).  Whenever the retransmit timer goes off,
                     39:  * we retransmit one unacknowledged segment, and do a backoff
                     40:  * on the retransmit timer.
                     41:  *
                     42:  * The TCPT_PERSIST timer is used to keep window size information
                     43:  * flowing even if the window goes shut.  If all previous transmissions
                     44:  * have been acknowledged (so that there are no retransmissions in progress),
                     45:  * and the window is too small to bother sending anything, then we start
                     46:  * the TCPT_PERSIST timer.  When it expires, if the window is nonzero,
                     47:  * we go to transmit state.  Otherwise, at intervals send a single byte
                     48:  * into the peer's window to force him to update our window information.
                     49:  * We do this at most as often as TCPT_PERSMIN time intervals,
                     50:  * but no more frequently than the current estimate of round-trip
                     51:  * packet time.  The TCPT_PERSIST timer is cleared whenever we receive
                     52:  * a window update from the peer.
                     53:  *
                     54:  * The TCPT_KEEP timer is used to keep connections alive.  If an
                     55:  * connection is idle (no segments received) for TCPTV_KEEP_INIT amount of time,
                     56:  * but not yet established, then we drop the connection.  Once the connection
                     57:  * is established, if the connection is idle for TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE time
                     58:  * (and keepalives have been enabled on the socket), we begin to probe
                     59:  * the connection.  We force the peer to send us a segment by sending:
                     60:  *     <SEQ=SND.UNA-1><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK>
                     61:  * This segment is (deliberately) outside the window, and should elicit
                     62:  * an ack segment in response from the peer.  If, despite the TCPT_KEEP
                     63:  * initiated segments we cannot elicit a response from a peer in TCPT_MAXIDLE
                     64:  * amount of time probing, then we drop the connection.
