Networkers,
Solaris currently lacks an interface to add custom implementations of
socket address families, types and protocols to the kernel without
modifying the kernel source.
Although the necessary datastructures are provided in the kernel
(sockfs), the different available implementations are chosen in a
hardcoded way.
Therefore, I propose a new project "Pluggable Sockets" that adds such an
interface. Discussions between Sun networking group and my company
resulted in a design concept that has been drafted.
Thanks, Joachim
