Subject: [PATCH 0/11] Generalize the inet_diag infrastructure
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2011 21:56:10 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EDE573A.6040607@parallels.com> (raw)
This is an attempt to prepare the existing inet_diag infrastructure to work with
arbitrary address family and protocol pair, not only AF_INET(6) and TCP/DCCP.
This set adds the sock_diag infrastructure, that handles the new SOCK_DIAG_BY_FAMILY
message type by the NETLINK_INET_DIAG socket. The core API struct for this (called
sock_diag_req) contains two fields - family and type - which specify which sockets
to dump. Additional information is considered to be family handler specific.
The existing inet_diag code is patched to register himself inside the sock_diag and
provide callbacks for dumping AF_INET/AF_INET6 IPPROTO_TCP/IPPROTO_DCCP sockets. The
existing API facilities such as state filtering and bytecode is of course preserved
and is treated by inet_diag specific data.
Binary compatibility with existing NETLINK_INET_DIAG is also kept.
No additional stuff in this set. The support for IPPROTO_UDP protocol and AF_UNIX
family will come later if this set is approved.
Applies to net-next, patch for iproute2's ss tool (proving that the new code ... pretends
to work) is at the end of the thread.
