1. Wierd listen/connect: accept queue never fills up

[Andi, I've CC'ed you since you're listed as the author of the `new
listen' code in net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c]

Seen on linux 2.4.20rc2.

This program is always able to establish new connections to itself:
the accept queue never fills up and connections always succeed
(although they take quite some time after the first four):

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <sys/socket.h>
  #include <netinet/in.h>

  int main(void)
  {
    int fd;
    struct sockaddr_in sin;
    socklen_t sinlen;

    if ((fd = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) == -1)
      perror("socket"), exit(1);

    sin.sin_family      = AF_INET;
    sin.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
    sin.sin_port              = htons(0);
    if (bind(fd, (struct sockaddr*)&sin, sizeof(sin)) == -1)
      perror("bind"), exit(1);
    if (listen(fd, 1) == -1)
      perror("listen"), exit(1);

    sinlen = sizeof(sin);
    getsockname(fd, (struct sockaddr*)&sin, &sinlen);

    while (1)
      {
        int fdc;

        if ((fdc = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) == -1)
        perror("socket"), exit(1);
        printf("%c", connect(fdc, (struct sockaddr*)&sin, sinlen) == -1
             ? 'F' : '.');
        fflush(stdout);
      }

    exit(0);
  }

I've tried enabling and disabling tcp_syncookies, without any effect.

The same program starts returning errors after two successful connects
on Solaris and one on HP-UX. Linux keeps returning new connections...
