Hello all,
A patch which updates a fixme which extends man 2 sendmmsg with an example.
The example uses sendmmsg to sends out a string "onetwo" on a first
datagram,
where both halves originate from distinct buffers and a second datagram
contains "three", coming from a single buffer.
Tested with netcat listening:
root@ubuntu:~# nc -l -u -p 1234
onetwothree
And tcpdump peeking:
root@ubuntu:~# tcpdump -c 2 -s 0 -X -ni lo tcpdump: verbose output
suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on lo, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
