I am using the Network Development kit to connect a TMS320DM642 DSP
to a PC via an ethernet network.

Running WinDump (a version of tcpdump for windows) it seems that the
TCP stack on the DSP does not respect the window size* being shown by
the TCP stack of the PC and thus overflows a number of buffers on the PC.

Does anyone know how I can read this window size within the DSP source
code to slow it down? (To be honest, I would have expected this to be
part of the stack.)

*I'm think I have the right term here - I mean the buffer space still
available on the host machine to receive data via TCP.

Thanks, Stephen.

PS. I will also send this to TI support, but past experience makes me
think that my reply will be dated 2005.
