NAME

  SO_MixA1A2A3A4.seq - Ordered Data chunks are received for Re-order (A1->A2->A3->A4)

PURPOSE

  To check that if DATA chunks arrive out of order of their stream
  sequence number, the endpoint MUST hold the received DATA chunks
  from delivery to the ULP until they are re-ordered.

SYNOPSIS

  ./SO_MixA1A2A3A4.seq [-tooloption ...] -pkt ./SO_Segment.def
    -tooloption : v6eval tool option

PRE-TEST CONDITION

  Association is established between endpoint A and B. Arrange data in
  endpoint A such that ordered DATA messages are sent to endpoint B.

  TEST DESCRIPTION:

  1. Send DATA A1 from endpoint A to B with Strm=0 and Seq=0.
  2. Check A: DATA A1 is delivered to the ULP and be send back.
  3. Send DATA A2 from endpoint A to B with Strm=0 and Seq=1.
  4. Check B: DATA A2 is delivered to the ULP and be send back.
  5. Send DATA A3 from endpoint A to B with Strm=0 and Seq=2.
  6. Check C: DATA A3 is delivered to the ULP and be send back.
  7. Send DATA A4 from endpoint A to B with Strm=0 and Seq=3.
  8. Check D: DATA A4 is delivered to the ULP and be send back.

NOTE

  None

REFERENCE

  RFC 4960

  6.6.  Ordered and Unordered Delivery

    Within a stream, an endpoint MUST deliver DATA chunks received with
    the U flag set to 0 to the upper layer according to the order of
    their Stream Sequence Number.  If DATA chunks arrive out of order of
    their Stream Sequence Number, the endpoint MUST hold the received
    DATA chunks from delivery to the ULP until they are reordered.

    However, an SCTP endpoint can indicate that no ordered delivery is
    required for a particular DATA chunk transmitted within the stream by
    setting the U flag of the DATA chunk to 1.
