Summary

This patch fixes the following issues:

  • Let the accepted TCP/IPv4 socket inherit the configured TTL and TOS value.

  • Use the configured Hop Limit and Traffic Class when sending IPv6 packets.

May this check for IPv6 become a single test, which covers the tests below?
This would improve the reading of the whole construct.

1395–1396 ↗(On Diff #75234)

A bit superfluous. isn't it?

1406–1407 ↗(On Diff #75234)

This could be a single #ifdef INET (in the #ifdef INET6 scope)

sys/netinet/tcp_syncache.c
1406–1407 ↗(On Diff #75234)

I'm using the pattern also used at tcp_syncache.c:1849 for consistency within the same file.

Simplify code as suggested by Lutz.
