|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <netgraph/ng_message.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <netgraph/ng_socket.h>
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
A
|
|
.Nm socket
|
|
node is both a BSD socket and a netgraph node. The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
node type allows user-mode processes to participate in the kernel
|
|
.Xr netgraph 4
|
|
networking subsystem using the BSD socket interface. The process must have
|
|
root privileges to be able to create netgraph sockets however once created,
|
|
any process that has one may use it.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A new
|
|
.Nm
|
|
node is created by creating a new socket of type
|
|
.Dv NG_CONTROL
|
|
in the protocol family
|
|
.Dv PF_NETGRAPH ,
|
|
using the
|
|
.Xr socket 2
|
|
system call.
|
|
Any control messages received by the node
|
|
and not having a cookie value of
|
|
.Dv NGM_SOCKET_COOKIE
|
|
are received by the process, using
|
|
.Xr recvfrom 2 ;
|
|
the socket address argument is a
|
|
.Dv "struct sockaddr_ng"
|
|
containing the sender's netgraph address. Conversely, control messages
|
|
can be sent to any node by calling
|
|
.Xr sendto 2 ,
|
|
supplying the recipient's address in a
|
|
.Dv "struct sockaddr_ng" .
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr bind 2
|
|
system call may be used to assign a global netgraph name to the node.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To transmit and receive netgraph data packets, a
|
|
.Dv NG_DATA
|
|
socket must also be created using
|
|
.Xr socket 2
|
|
and associated with a
|
|
.Nm
|
|
node.
|
|
.Dv NG_DATA sockets do not automatically
|
|
have nodes associated with them; they are bound to a specific node via the
|
|
.Xr connect 2
|
|
system call. The address argument is the netgraph address of the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
node already created. Once a data socket is associated with a node,
|
|
any data packets received by the node are read using
|
|
.Xr recvfrom 2
|
|
and any packets to be sent out from the node are written using
|
|
.Xr sendto 2 .
|
|
In the case of data sockets, the
|
|
.Dv "struct sockaddr_ng"
|
|
contains the name of the
|
|
.Em hook
|
|
on which the data was received or should be sent.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
As a special case, to allow netgraph data sockets to be used as stdin or stdout
|
|
on naive programs, a
|
|
.Xr sendto 2
|
|
with a NULL sockaddr pointer, a
|
|
.Xr send 2
|
|
or a
|
|
.Xr write 2
|
|
will succeed in the case where there is exactly ONE hook attached to
|
|
the socket node, (and thus the path is unambiguous).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
There is a user library that simplifies using netgraph sockets; see
|
|
.Xr netgraph 3 .
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports hooks with arbitrary names (as long as
|
|
they are unique) and always accepts hook connection requests.
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_SOCK_CMD_NOLINGER
|
|
When the last hook is removed from this node, it will shut down as
|
|
if it had received a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
message. Attempts to access the sockets associated will return
|
|
.Er ENOTCONN .
|
|
.It Dv NGM_SOCK_CMD_LINGER
|
|
This is the default mode. When the last hook is removed, the node will
|
|
continue to exist, ready to accept new hooks until it
|
|
is explicitly shut down.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All other messages
|
|
with neither the
|
|
.Dv NGM_SOCKET_COOKIE
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv NGM_GENERIC_COOKIE
|
|
will be passed unaltered up the
|
|
.Dv NG_CONTROL
|
|
socket.
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node type shuts down and disappears when both the associated
|
|
.Dv NG_CONTROL
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv NG_DATA
|
|
sockets have been closed, or a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message is received. In the latter case, attempts to write
|
|
to the still-open sockets will return
|
|
.Er ENOTCONN .
|
|
If the
|
|
.Dv NGM_SOCK_CMD_NOLINGER
|
|
message has been received, closure of the last hook will also initiate
|
|
a shutdown of the node.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
It is not possible to reject the connection of a hook, though any
|
|
data received on that hook can certainly be ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The controlling process is not notified of all events that an in-kernel node
|
|
would be notified of, e.g. a new hook, or hook removal. We should define
|
|
some node-initiated messages for this purpose (to be sent up the control
|
|
socket).
