Is there a reliable way for a process to determine if a TIPC socket address
points to an open socket without disturbing the target process? I'm hoping to
be able to determine the liveness/reachability of a datagram peer, at least
roughly, without taking on the complexity of additional messaging (or group
membership and join/leave tracking).
Thanks.
It depends on the socket type and state. If it is a connected socket
there is a built-in mechanism that will make sure that the peer socket
is immediately notified, and the user will receive this notification.
The same is the case with group sockets.
For DGRAM sockets there is no such mechanism, since it is impossible for
TIPC to know which peers need to be supervised.
