Hi Andrei!
Thanks for the detailed description, we should put it on the wiki.

In async mode the send never blocks (with the same disclaimers as for the non-blocking read). If no "real" send happens for tcp_send_timeout (or tcp_connect_timeout if this is a not yet connected connection), the connection will be closed, a failure will be reported and the destination will be blacklisted. Same thing happens if the per
So, how does send_timeout work in async mode? The write is non-blocking, that means the kernel accepts the data and the write/send function returns immediately. Now, the kernel tries to send the data for send_timeout seconds. If this fails, what happens now? Is there a callback from kernel to ser or does ser somehow poll if the sending was successful?
thanks klaus
