    dccp: Limit feature negotiation to connection setup phase · 5591d286
    Gerrit Renker 提交于
    This patch starts the new implementation of feature negotiation:
     1. Although it is theoretically possible to perform feature negotiation at any
        time (and RFC 4340 supports this), in practice this is prohibitively complex,
        as it requires to put traffic on hold for each new negotiation.
     2. As a byproduct of restricting feature negotiation to connection setup, the
        feature-negotiation retransmit timer is no longer required. This part is now
        mapped onto the protocol-level retransmission.
        Details indicating why timers are no longer needed can be found on
        http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\
    	                                      implementation_notes.html
    
    This patch disables anytime negotiation, subsequent patches work out full
    feature negotiation support for connection setup.
