<p> Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an extension to TCP that
allows for the use of multiple network interfaces on a
standard TCP session. The addition of new addresses and
scheduling of data across these occurs transparently from the
perspective of the TCP application.</p>
<p>The goal of this project is to deliver an MPTCP kernel
patch that interoperates with the reference MPTCP
implementation, along with additional enhancements to aid
network research.</p>
<p>The patch now supports the core mechanisms of the MPTCP
protocol (multi-address operation, data-level retransmission,
etc).</p>
<p>Recent additions include improved socket-option
handling and the transfer of some logging output to DTRACE. The
patch has been updated to build against r285254 of HEAD.</p>
<p>A patch (v0.5) is currently being tested and will be
made available to the public shortly, with a plan to release
further patches on a more frequent basis following that.</p>
