From: Randall Stewart <r...@freebsd.org>

The rack stack, with respect to the rack bits in it, was originally built based
on an early I-D of rack. In fact at that time the TLP bits were in a separate
I-D. The dynamic reordering window based on DSACK events was not present
in rack at that time. It is now part of the RFC and we need to update our stack
to include these features. However we want to have a way to control the feature
so that we can, if the admin decides, make it stay the same way system wide as
well as via socket option. The new sysctl and socket option has the following
meaning for setting:

00 (0) - Keep the old way, i.e. reordering window is 1 and do not use DSACK 
bytes to add to reorder window
01 (1) - Change the Reordering window to 1/4 of an RTT but do not use DSACK 
bytes to add to reorder window
10 (2) - Keep the reordering window as 1, but do use SACK bytes to add 
additional 1/4 RTT delay to the reorder window
11 (3) - reordering window is 1/4 of an RTT and add additional DSACK bytes to 
increase the reordering window (RFC behavior)

The default currently in the sysctl is 3 so we get standards based behavior.
