acknowledged
A link starts at 1,200 bytes; once an RTT is known it sends a PING padded
to 1,452 (DPLPMTUD, RFC 8899), alone and with the don't-fragment bit,
and uses that size once it is acknowledged. A probe lost is no
congestion; it is tried again a second on, three times, then ten minutes
on. GSO is asked for each burst (a control message), not the socket, so
a packet sent alone is never cut. CUBIC counts in the datagram.
On loopback packets fall by 19-27%; the CPU a record falls 13% at 1 KiB
and 7% at 16 KiB; in the simulator of a 50 Mbit/s path with 1% loss the
goodput rises from 6.1 to 7.0 Mbit/s (5%: 2.3 to 3.0).

A record that does not fit what is left of a packet goes in part when at
least 64 bytes fit; its parts keep their cuts, so what a packet carried
is whole parts. The receiver keeps the spans it had of a record, and a
record coming in order from its start fills the line's tail with no
allocation. Packets fall by 8% for 1 KiB records and 10% for 16 KiB;
the CPU a record is the same at 61 B and 1 KiB and 5% less at 16 KiB.

A packet called lost stays known a while; acknowledged after all, it
came late: what it carried counts as received, the reordering awaited
grows (later packets acknowledged, and time past the RTT, as RACK), and
an episode of congestion events whose losses all came late is undone.
The window grows only when it was used (RFC 9002 7.8), and congestion
avoidance is CUBIC (RFC 9438), as quinn's.
In a path of 50 Mbit/s whose packets reorder by up to 5 ms, with no
loss, a link carried 1.5 Mbit/s at an RTT of 20 ms and 10 at 100 ms; now
43.6 and 40.1, as without reordering (research/experiments/020-lossy-paths,
virtual time). With 1% random loss: 4.9 to 6.1 at 20 ms, 1.0 to 1.3 at
100 ms. The transport's CPU a record is unchanged.

links.c was a second implementation of the packet format; each device is
now a PureLinkSender on a socket of its own, keyed with a secret made
outside (pure_link_sender_shared: a key kept elsewhere, or a test's
many). M1 (1k, 10k) and M2 (10k, kill -9) pass with it: no silent step,
caught up in 0.2 s, every order applied once; the slowest store after
the restart is now the sender's 1 s wait for a word of the save
(STORED_WAIT), where the old devices tried again after 200 ms.

link/link-protocol.h is the protocol with no socket, thread or clock of
its own: packets and time in, packets out. link/link.h carries it over
UDP as before. A sender starts small (8 flights, 16 records, a 4 KiB
ring) so one thread can hold many. The transport's CPU a record is the
same within 2% (five rounds each way, 61 B to 16 KiB).
test-link runs both sides through a network of its own: loss, packets
held back and doubled, failed saves, an idle sweep, and both sides
starting again, every record applied once as sent.
