Hi, I noticed an e-mail by Alan Cox regarding this issue on August, 1999
http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/net/9908.1/0018.html
According to him Linux does not need sa_len/sin_len, thus did not
implement them.
But when porting applications from BSD to Linux, how to circumvent this
problem?
In linux: /usr/include/bits/sockaddr.h:
#define SA_LEN(_x)
But it seems that this is not usable when trying to convert something
like ifrp->ifr_addr.sa_len , and how about sin_len?
Thanks a lot!
