CURLOPT_TCP_FASTOPEN(3)     Library Functions Manual	 CURLOPT_TCP_FASTOPEN(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_TCP_FASTOPEN - TCP Fast Open

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TCP_FASTOPEN, long enable);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass a long as parameter set to 1L to enable or 0 to disable.

     TCP  Fast	Open (RFC 7413) is a mechanism that allows data to be carried in
     the SYN and SYN-ACK packets and consumed by the receiving	end  during  the
     initial connection handshake, saving up to one full round-trip time (RTT).

     Beware:  the TLS session cache does not work when TCP Fast Open is enabled.
     TCP Fast Open is also known to be problematic on  or  across  certain  net-
     works.

DEFAULT
     0

	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TCP_FASTOPEN, 1L);
