The documentation is a bit of a mess here. I'll explain what should
happen below and try and clean up the documentation.
There are three (or four) attributes to consider:
connectionLinger (a.k.a. soLinger)
socket.soLingerOn
socket.soLingerTime
The simplest way to understand how they interact is to look at the
setSoLingermethod in the endpoint
public void setSoLinger(int soLinger) {
socketProperties.setSoLingerTime(soLinger);
socketProperties.setSoLingerOn(soLinger>=0);
}
connectionLinger is essentially a short-cut to setting soLingerTime and
soLingerOn

Yes, it is redundant. connectionLinger was first and then when the
socket.* attributes were added, all the socket attributes were exposed
creating the redundancy.

No.

trunk and Tomcat 7: JVM defaults are used. If both are set in server.xml
(don't do that) it depends on the order in which the attributes are read.
Tomcat 6:
BIO & APR. Only support connectionLinger. Default 100.
NIO. Supports all three (four). Default 25.

It can't. The units of connectionLinger are seconds. That is another
documentation error.
The docs have been fixed for trunk, 7.0.x and 6.0.x and will be included
in 7.0.22 & 6.0.34 onwards.
