Stream Control Transmission Protocol
From RFC 2960 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2960.txt)
"SCTP is a reliable transport protocol operating on top of a
connectionless packet network such as IP. It offers the following
services to its users:
-- acknowledged error-free non-duplicated transfer of user data,
-- data fragmentation to conform to discovered path MTU size,
-- sequenced delivery of user messages within multiple streams,
with an option for order-of-arrival delivery of individual user
messages,
-- optional bundling of multiple user messages into a single SCTP
packet, and
-- network-level fault tolerance through supporting of multi-
homing at either or both ends of an association."
This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
want). The module will be called sctp. If you want to compile it
as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>.
If in doubt, say N.
config SCTP_ADLER32
bool "SCTP: Use old checksum (Adler-32)"
depends on IP_SCTP
help
RCF2960 currently specifies the Adler-32 checksum algorithm for SCTP.
This has been deprecated and replaced by an algorithm now referred
to as crc32c.
If you say Y, this will use the Adler-32 algorithm, this might be useful
for interoperation with downlevel peers.
If unsure, say N.
config SCTP_DBG_MSG
bool "SCTP: Debug messages"
depends on IP_SCTP
help
If you say Y, this will enable verbose debugging messages.
If unsure, say N. However, if you are running into problems, use this
option to gather detailed trace information
config SCTP_DBG_OBJCNT
bool "SCTP: Debug object counts"
depends on IP_SCTP
help
If you say Y, this will enable debugging support for counting the types
of objects that are currently allocated. This is useful for identifying
memory leaks. If the /proc filesystem is enabled this debug information
can be viewed by 'cat /proc/net/sctp/sctp_dbg_objcnt'
If unsure, say N
