Then yes, it seems that you would need the raw packet on the receiving side too.

Bernd: Is it to create a SOCK_RAW socket for receieve and send? Then is it means I have to parse the IP header and options if any? Will it cause performance problem, compare to SOCK_DGRAM?

I guess you have to call getaddrinfo() and create a socket for every address you want to bind to. If you want to stay single threaded you can switch them to nonblocking and use epoll to wait for packets. -Michi -- programing a layer 3+4 network protocol for mesh networks see http://michaelblizek.twilightparadox.com ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
Re: Problem with a UDP server implements
michi: 1. Is that to create two sockets and one bind to 10.0.0.1 the other bind to 10.0.0.2 then use epoll wait these two sockets ? 2. Is there any way to find out the turple like TCP then the UDP server can reply with exactly the ip it recieved the client's request ? Thanks. 2011/10/15 mic...@michaelblizek.twilightparadox.com: Hi!

You should receive the packet only on the socket which is bound to the address. You can save the bind address somewhere, so you know the local address. You will know the client address because it is passed back by recvfrom. -Michi -- programing a layer 3+4 network protocol for mesh networks see http://michaelblizek.twilightparadox.com ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
