Ideas on TCP unit testing: https://www.snellman.net/blog/archive/2015-07-09-unit-testing-a-tcp-stack/
Check behaviour around TCP zero-window probing. Is the correct
behaviour already a consequence of the way send-outbound works?
Do something smarter with TCP timers and RTT estimation than the nothing that's already being done.
TCP options negotiation.
- SACK
- Window scaling
Check that we handle the situations in figs. 9, 10, 11, pp.33- of RFC 793.
Bugs:
-
RST kills a connection even if its sequence number is bogus. Check to make sure it's in the window. (See http://static.googleusercontent.com/media/research.google.com/en//pubs/archive/41848.pdf and RFC 5961)
Conform better to the rules for reset generation and processing from pp.36- of RFC 793. In particular, do not blindly accept RSTs without checking sequence numbers against windows etc.
