Standard socket call,
sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
This getsus a TCP socket.
sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
This gets us a UDP socket. Question is when we call socket we don't specify
the exact protocol, which is what we've been keying off so far. So, are
people happy that we add a couple more fields to the net_module structure
that we use to store the extra details?
Specifically,
pr_type = SOCK_[STREAM|DGRAM|RAW]
pr_protocol = IPPROTO_[UDP|TCP|RAW|ICMP|IGMP] | 0 (IP)
Then we need a function that will find the module that deals with a
particular combination...but that can just walk a list so I'm not worried
about that.
Anyone any thougts? I ask as this is needed for the sockets stuff :)
