A new function, onload_socket_rx_nonaccel(), has been added to the Onload Extensions API to create a socket which only accelerates TX traffic. This means that connect() can be called on a UDP socket without installing a filter.

Note: This feature only applies to UDP sockets. If this feature is used with TCP sockets they are not accelerated in either transmission direction.
