  The Go Pointer Magic

Go is a language with the pointer type, by which we can Pass pointer into a function and update value in-place. Add methods to a struct as (* T) A, which is different from (T) A(). However, the pointer is type-safe in Go, meaning that there are such restrictions of the pointer. Different types of pointers are unconvertible. Pointer type cannot be used for calculation. Pointer types cannot be compared, either == nor !=. No mutual assignment between different pointer-...

  Why TCP needs 3 handshakes

Prerequisite Knowledge First, let's look at the control bits and state machine of TCP, which form the basis for understanding the three-way handshake of TCP. TCP Packet Control Bits The control bits in the TCP packet header are used to control the status of the TCP connection and can indicate various control information such as connection establishment, termination, reset, etc. There are six common control bits: SYN (Synchronize Sequence Numbers): Requests to establish a connection (part of the...

  When no need 3 handshakes in TCP?

Overview In the previous article titled Why TCP needs 3 handshakes simple answers were provided to the following three questions: Can application data be carried during the first handshake? Can application data be carried during the second handshake? Can application data be carried during the third handshake? Briefly, traditional TCP requires a three-way handshake to establish a connection, and during these three handshakes, only simple SYN and ACK packets are sent. From the perspective o...
