Doesn't seem like there is one. Please reopen or re-post if you think differently. This just cannot be easily implemented in lwIP as it is now.

Is there a real-world requirement for this one?

It's hard to implement and could only be implemented for LWIP_CALLBACK_API==1, not for LWIP_EVENT_API==1 as the "connected" callback has to be called instead of the the "accept" callback although in state SYN-RCVD to prevent having to make the application aware of the simultaneous open.

Given this and the fact that it increases code size for no real use (as far as I see it), I don't think we should implement this.

Simultaneous open.  Low priority as very unlikely in practice in a real-world application.

I found in lwIP,  when an active open pcb in its SYN-SENT state and
received an segment sent from peer which has SYN flag but w/o ACK
flag,  the pcb just ignore the segment.  However, in RFC 793, it is
required to accept the SYN only segment in SYN-SENT state and switch to SYN-RCVD state.

I found this by both testing and checking the source code (tcp_input.c)
