I have been tackling this today. This is what i have so far: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- static int my_udp_send(struct thread *td, void *syscall_args) { struct socket *sock = NULL;
if( socreate(AF_INET, &sock, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, td->td_proc->p_ucred, td) != 0 ) { uprintf("socreate() returned error\n"); return -1; } struct sockaddr sa; sa.sa_len = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in); struct sockaddr_in *sin = (struct sockaddr_in *)&sa; sin->sin_family = AF_INET; inet_aton("192.168.2.2", (struct sockaddr_in *)&sin->sin_addr); sin->sin_port = htons(8080); sin->sin_len = sizeof(*sin); memset(sin->sin_zero, 0, sizeof(sin->sin_zero)); // int soconnect_error = soconnect(sock, (struct sockaddr *)sin, td); // uprintf("soconnect(): %d\n", soconnect_error); struct mbuf *top = m_getclr(M_TRYWAIT, MT_CONTROL); // IP is 0 int sosend_error = sosend(sock, (struct sockaddr *)sin, NULL, top, NULL, 0, td); uprintf("sosend(): %d\n", sosend_error); soclose(sock); return 0; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- However, when listening to my home network using wireshark, I filter out everything but UDP packets with the 192.168.2.2 address on them. I'm afraid to say that there aren't any packets showing. Am i doing something wrong? Note, that I am not filling in the mbuf and all the wacking casting done. Thanks.
