This patch is to add a per transport timer based on sctp timer frame for stream reconf chunk retransmission. It would start after sending a reconf request chunk, and stop after receiving the response chunk. If the timer expires, besides retransmitting the reconf request chunk, it would also do the same thing with data RTO timer. like to increase the appropriate error counts, and perform threshold management, possibly destroying the asoc if sctp retransmission thresholds are exceeded, just as section 5.1.1 describes. This patch is also to add asoc strreset_chunk, it is used to save the reconf request chunk, so that it can be retransmitted, and to check if the response is really for this request by comparing the information inside with the response chunk as well.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
