为什么windows udp接收套接字的超时总是比SO_RCVTIMEO设置的时间长500毫秒？

Question

易于重现，这是我正在做的伪代码：

1. 设置UDP套接字
2. 将超时设置为值（Timeout set）
3. 检查我设置的超时（Timeout checked）
4. 尝试在该套接字上接收（当没有流量时）。
5. 超时需要多长时间。 （Time until Timeout）

当我这样做时，我得到以下输出：

Timeout set: 0.1s | Timeout checked: 0.1s | Time until timeout: 0.6s | difference: 0.5s
Timeout set: 0.2s | Timeout checked: 0.2s | Time until timeout: 0.7s | difference: 0.5s
Timeout set: 0.4s | Timeout checked: 0.4s | Time until timeout: 0.9s | difference: 0.5s
Timeout set: 0.8s | Timeout checked: 0.8s | Time until timeout: 1.3s | difference: 0.5s
Timeout set: 1.6s | Timeout checked: 1.6s | Time until timeout: 2.1s | difference: 0.5s
Timeout set: 3.2s | Timeout checked: 3.2s | Time until timeout: 3.7s | difference: 0.5s

为什么windows udp套接字超时总是比setsockopt中设置的时间长500ms？

看看setsockopt here我看不到有关为什么在涉及SO_RCVTIMEO的部分发生这种情况的信息。

        auto duration = std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::milliseconds>(std::chrono::steady_clock::now() - s).count() / 1000.0;

        std::cout << "Timeout set: " << timeout << "s | Timeout checked: " << lBufferout[0] / 1000.0 << "s | Time until timeout: " << duration << "s | difference: " << duration - timeout << "s\n";
    }

    while (true);

    return 0;
}

注意：此代码期望端口1010上没有流量。如果不是这种情况，请更改该号码。

据说是here:

SO_RCVTIMEO上的无证件最低限制约为500mS。

这可能是通过始终为SO_RCVTIMEO设置的任何值添加500毫秒来实现的。
