Sockets in the Linux Kernel (2)<br><br>
Abstract<br>
We will deal with the implementation the following sockets in the Linux kernel:
<ul><li> Raw sockets.
</li><li> Unix Domain sockets.
</li><li> Netlink sockets.
</li><li> SCTP sockets.</li></ul>
We will discuss the following topics:
<ul><li> how raw sockets are used in the familiar "ping" and "traceroute" utils.
</li><li> The usage of Unix domain sockets as an IPC (Inter process
communication) mechanism.
</li><li> Netlink sockets as a messaging subsystem between kernel and
userspace (including rtnetlink and generic netlink)
</li><li> examples demonstratting Netlink sockets usage
</li><li> SCTP sockets : one-to-one style and one-to-many style.
