Hmmmm. In PIPELINE NEWS1111 (PIPELINE MODULE Modification 1.0110 sublevel 0025
(37 in decimal))
which dates to September 1998, we have the following:
"TCPLISTEN Support an input stream. When there is an input stream, a
record is peeked from it before TCPLISTEN issues the socket
accept call to get a new request. The record is consumed
after the socket has been closed (or taken by a TCPDATA
stage). Thus, by controlling the rate of arrival of input
records, you can now cause the stage to reject flooding.
With this facility you can implement the function requested
in SHARE requirement 74.”
Was that not carried forward?
