Currently association restarts do not take into consideration the state of the socket. When a restart happens, the current assocation simply transitions into established state. This creates a condition where a remote system, through a the restart procedure, may create a local association that is no way reachable by user. The conditions to trigger this are as follows: 1) Remote does not acknoledge some data causing data to remain outstanding. 2) Local application calls close() on the socket. Since data is still outstanding, the association is placed in SHUTDOWN_PENDING state. However, the socket is closed. 3) The remote tries to create a new association, triggering a restart on the local system. The association moves from SHUTDOWN_PENDING to ESTABLISHED. At this point, it is no longer reachable by any socket on the local system. This patch addresses the above situation by moving the newly ESTABLISHED association into SHUTDOWN-SENT state and bundling a SHUTDOWN after the COOKIE-ACK chunk. This way, the restarted associate immidiately enters the shutdown procedure and forces the termination of the unreachable association.
