Re: [Cerowrt-devel] adding TCP fast open support to the polipo web proxy?

[Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com>]

Go for it! (you will need to be running linux 3.7 on your x86 box or
virtual machine - which should be done in a few days, and it would be
best to start with polipo's git tree.)

This article has a comprehensive explanation of how it works.

after it works on x86, it should be nearly no problem to make work on cerowort.
