Hi everybody,

I was looking through the code for the TCP implementation in kernel
2.0.34. Just had a doubt, on call to accept(), when a new sock structure
is established, does it have the same options as were set for the old one
using setsockopt(). It doesn't look so to me in the code...or am I
woefully off the mark?

Also, is the following execution path the way to go for user level
accept()?

accept()->sys_accept()->inet_dup()->inet_create()

after which the regular tcp_accept() gets called? 

Thanks
Hari

Hi everybody,

I was wondering if anybody could tell me where the initialisation code for
the different address families (AF_UNIX, AF_INET etc) lay. Also where is
the structure definition for these address families? I found that for the
AF_INET family, there is a structure named struct inet_protocol{} in
protocol.h, and initialised in protocol.c, but what about the other
families? I recollect reading somewhere  about some pops vector, but I
dunno.

Also, where is the snmp variable defined in struct
tcp_mib{unsinged long tcpoutsegs;} updated? 


Have a great day.

Regards
Hari
