I can't comment on the em part but the tcp_output.c stuff looks
very much like a straight port from NetBSD.  If we take code from
the other BSDs we have to remark this in the emails we send with
patches and the commit message (otherwise we get accused of 'stealing
without attribution').

I dont know that I'd call it a straight port, rather I was working from some
prototype code that Prafulla had working back on 4.7, but I think at that
time that he may have patterned it after NetBSD. I certainly don't claim
any grand originality here, we stop the tcp stack from segmenting so the
hardware can do it :), but I have no problem attributing the NetBSD crew.

Cheers,
