Hi Jesse, Hi all, I am currently investigating how STT[1] may be implemented for Open vSwtich. In the course of this it has struck me that a property particular to STT is that it uses the TCP IP protocol number but actually isn't TCP. Which makes me wonder how the receive-side it may be hooked into the Linux kernel.
My thought so far is that some modifications may need to be made to tcp_v4_rcv() and/or tcp_v6_rcv() to skip TCP processing of packets for sockets that have been bound by STT. But I was wondering if you have any thoughts on this. I suspect that this is a conversation best had on the netdev list, but I thought I would ask here first.
