Socket Filters will provide a framework which makes it possible for modules to intercept user requests and transport events occurring on non-STREAMS sockets. Filters will be able to modify or deny socket operations; transform, delay and inject data, as well as defer the notification of new connections. Included in the scope of this project is the conversion of the existing in-kernel SSL proxy into a socket filter.
