Hi Neel, If you are brave enough to leave the (mostly) stateless domain of L3 packet= handling, and take on the challenge to tip your toes into the unforgiving = realm of stateful L4 transport protocols, that would certainly be an area w= here every helping hand counts. E.g. Rod has recently found some quite dated Diffs, around TSO, which would= probably need some love (reviews and validation):=20 D6611 D6612 D6656 (There are many more semi-abandoned Diffs waiting on reviews.freebsd.org; a= nd I also have a few Diffs for new functionality waiting for someone willin= g to read into the RFCs and confirm that the code performs as intended, aro= und RFC6675, ECN+/ECN++, ...) If this is something for you, there are also biweekly transport calls happe= ning (should be in your evening) - and anyone wanting to join is welcome.

In case you were wondering, I am responsible for patches like r357092 (IPFW= /libalias RFC6598, original idea), r363403 and r362900 (related to routing = KPI, suggested by melifaro@). However, despite my current accepted code, I am dry of ideas. At the same t= ime, I'd love to work with kernel code, especially the network code. Sadly, the Wiki is dreadfully out-of-date. Is there any things I could work on in the FreeBSD networking stack? Any th= ings you committers need help with?
