[Tuexen Michael] It is completely up to the upper layer
and you can specify it as a parameter in the sctp_registerInstance
call. See the examples.

[Tuexen Michael] Control chunks never come from the upper layer.
The upper layer only provides userdata via primitives.

[Tuexen Michael] If an application wants to delay packets
it (the ULP) must know for what time. We have not implemented this
feature yet.

[Tuexen Michael] The MTU.
