Like > CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION... Yes, sure. The parameters TCP_KEEPCNT, TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_INTVL are defined in <netinet/tcp.h>. This header is not available from src/main.c, while it is available from lib/connect.c. I just applied the same rules which are used for the use of TCP_NODELAY in curl : TCP_NODELAY is also in <netinet/tcp.h> ; a function, tcpnodelay, has been defined in lib/connect.c. Maybe the same include problem arises with the parameter IPPROTO_TCP (as one cannot use the SOL_SOCKET level for modifying the keepalive values ; see man 7 tcp and man 7 socket) which is defined in <netinet/in.h>, but I did not check.
