Hello, I have a working program that receives blocks of data from a SOCK_SEQPACKET using a blocking read(). So far I use a fixed-size buffer of the maximum size. I would like to query for the size available, malloc a block of the appropriate size, then read. Is that feasible? Note: I think that I can not put the size at the head of the packet since " SOCK_SEQPACKET Provides a sequenced, reliable, two-way connection-based data transmission path for datagrams of fixed maximum length; a consumer is required to read an entire packet with each read system call."
