 Not yet. Rewriting moar to use less jargon and make KISTLite sound better.

 I would go with at least the man page for sure. Requirements for an option
 in the man page have to be documented there.

 (Moving it to 032... I think it was a mistake for this to be in 033.)

 From what I have seen, all the different VPS providers I tested are still
 using Linux 2.6.32 or below.

Comment:

 Thanks. I agree this should be documented.

 Is this the same Tor instance you are using in #24158? I suspect it is,
 and I suspect your Tor is still running KISTLite. Does that sound correct?

 I suspect that to be the case because I've now (re)looked into this. KIST
 support requires two things:

 1. The tcp_info struct in the kernel having the right members
 2. The SIOCOUTQNSD symbol being defined in a certain header

 As long as getsockopt has worked the same for all of time (even before the
 switch to putting some headers in a "uapi" directory), then the first
 check for KIST support will pass on kernels AT LEAST as old as 2005's
 linux-2.6.12-rc2, the first git commit.

 The second check will only pass on kernels v2.6.39 or newer.

 So it looks like "KIST" will only work if you have v2.6.39 or newer, which
 is slightly newer than your kernel. "KISTLite" should work regardless of
 your kernel. Hell, you don't even need to be using Linux.

 Now __WHERE__ should we document this? Comment in the source? Man page?
 Both? Neither? Looking for input from anyone here.
