All:
The description on this sysctl was just recently added in -CURRENT. It
was missing during all of RELENG_6 and RELENG_7? Do we not trust it
entirely, ergo the two hour initial threshold and lack of documentation?
It also seems like the description could be bit more insightful; looks
like it was rushed hence pith / lack of capitalization.
netbsd5# sysctl -d net.inet.tcp.keepidle
net.inet.tcp.keepidle: Allowed connection idle ticks before a
keepalive probe is sent
fbsdhead$ sysctl -d net.inet.tcp.keepidle
net.inet.tcp.keepidle: time before keepalive probes
begin keepalive probe is sent
