Hi, Catching up on moving 2.4.20+ target, here is a set of patches to backport lksctp on top of 2.4.23-pre3[*], ready (IMHO) for integration into 2.4.x. It consists in 3 patches, described in details (and referenced) below. They are uploaded in the "Patches" section of the lksctp project page on Sourceforge. <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=26529&atid=387572> Comments welcome. Please Cc: lksctp-developers in reply, as I am not currently subscribed to netdev. TIA. Best regards, [*] it will not work on 2.4.20 & previous versions, as the required upward packet distribution was integrated between 2.4.20 & 2.4.21 and onwards. <http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.4/user=sri/cset@1.930.35.4?nav=!-|inde x.html|stats|!+|index.html|ChangeSet@-6M> [1/3] LKSCTP 0.6.9 backport on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 This patch is the first of a bundle of 3. It adds the necessary changes to the kernel IP stack so that SCTP can perform PMTU discovery. No other SCTP-specific changes. This patch only affects existing kernel files. The resulting kernel is functionally unchanged. [1/3] lksctp 0.6.9 on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=805060&group_id=26 529&atid=387572> [2/3] LKSCTP 0.6.9 backport on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 This patch is the second of a bundle of 3. This patch modifies the kernel existing files to add the SCTP functionality. It cannot work without the 3rd patch of this serie, but is issued to better highlight the required changes. This patch requires the [1/3] patch. The kernel resulting from [2/3] patching will not compile, until [3/3] is also applied. [2/3] lksctp 0.6.9 on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=805063&group_id=26 529&atid=387572> [3/3] LKSCTP 0.6.9 backport on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 This patch is the 3rd of a bundle of 3. This patch consists only in new files, added for SCTP support. It adds the SCTP protocol & sockets layers to the IP stack. This patchs requires patches [1/3] & [2/3] to be applied. A kernel resulting from the patching using the whole set of patch is a 2.4.23-pre3 with SCTP support. [3/3] lksctp 0.6.9 on kernel 2.4.23-pre3 <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=805064&group_id=26 529&atid=387572> PS: This is the last version of a number of patchsets submitted to lksctp team. Compared to the last series of patches we have produced on top of 2.4.22-rc2, there have been no functional changes but the single_open()/single_release() interface changes that have been moved from the compatibility header (include/net/sctp/compat.h) and exported in kernel/ksyms.c -- Damien Morange - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
