This contains a couple of examples for using the portal filing system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The portal file system provides a way of obtaining a file descriptor
|
||
|
|
to a filesystem object (i.e. something that is accessed by open(2),
|
||
|
|
pipe(2), socket(2) or socketpair(2)) via the filesystem namespace.
|
||
|
|
At present the only file descriptor supported are TCP sockets and
|
||
|
|
files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE!!!! The portal file system is experimental in nature and should
|
||
|
|
not be considered secure, use with caution.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First off mount the filesystem using something like:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mount_portal /usr/share/examples/portal/portal.conf /p
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then you should be able to do things like
|
||
|
|
# cat /p/tcp/localhost/daytime

(assuming inetd is running the daytime service, by default it is off)

Welcome to FreeBSD!

Finally, a very simple example of the listening server is available,
|
||
|
|
fire up two xterms. In the first
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
xterm-1$ cat /p/tcplisten/ANY/6666
|
||
|
|
(the ANY is a wildcard just like using INADDR_ANY, any resolvable host
|
||
|
|
can be used).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the second xterm
|
||
|
|
xterm-2$ echo "hello there" >/p/tcp/localhost/6666
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You should see the "hello there" string appear on the first terminal.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unprivilged users can't create servers on privalged ports.
|
||
|
|
xterm-1$ cat /p/tcplisten/ANY/666
|
||
|
|
cat: /p/tcplisten/ANY/666: Operation not permitted
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
but root can
|
||
|
|
xterm-1# cat /p/tcplisten/ANY/666
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the second
|
||
|
|
xterm-2$ echo "hello there" >/p/tcp/localhost/666
|
||
|
|
should produce the expected response.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can also swap the client/server read and write commands etc.
