Quoting Alan Cox: | Ar Iau, 2006-06-08 am 11:50 +0100, ysgrifennodd Gerrit Renker: | > + UDP-Lite introduces a new socket type, the SOCK_LDGRAM (note the L) for | > + lightweight, connection-less services. These are the socket options: | | This is not the intended use of the socket API when distinguishing | between services. The socket() call has a protocol field that is usually | unused and it exists precisely to disambiguate multiple protocols with | the same generic behaviour but different properties. | | s = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_UDPLITE); | | is probably the right way to do this, keeping 0 "default" as before | meaning IPPROTO_UDP Understood. Please, anyone, disregard or un-apply the previous UDP-Lite patch. A revised patch will be prepared and posted as soon as testing permits. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
