The new RX_O_FOREIGN, RX_O_V6ONLY and RX_O_V4V6 options are now set into
the rx_settings part during the parsing, so that we don't need to adjust
them in each and every listener anymore. We have to keep both v4v6 and
v6only due to the precedence from v6only over v4v6.
Some socket settings used to be retrieved via the listener and the
bind_conf. Now instead we use the receiver and its settings whenever
appropriate. This will simplify the removal of the dependency on the
listener.
sock_find_compatible_fd() can now access the protocol via the receiver
hence it can access its socket type and know whether the receiver has
dgram or stream sockets, so we don't need to hack around AF_CUST_UDP*
anymore there.
The receiver is the one which depends on the protocol while the listener
relies on the receiver. Let's move the protocol there. Since there's also
a list element to get back to the listener from the proto list, this list
element (proto_list) was moved as well. For now when scanning protos, we
still see listeners which are linked by their rx.proto_list part.
The netns is common to all listeners/receivers and is used to bind the
listening socket so it must be in the receiver settings and not in the
listener. This removes some yet another set of unnecessary loops.
The interface is common to all listeners/receivers and is used to bind
the listening socket so it must be in the receiver settings and not in
the listener. This removes some unnecessary loops.
For now we still don't retrieve dgram sockets, but the code must be able
to distinguish them before we switch to receivers. This adds a new flag
to the xfer_sock_list indicating that a socket is of type SOCK_DGRAM. The
way to set the flag for now is by looking at the dummy address family which
equals AF_CUST_UDP{4,6} in this case (given that other dgram sockets are not
yet supported).
We'll want to store more info there and some info that are not represented
in listener options at the moment (such as dgram vs stream) so let's get
rid of these and instead use a new set of options (SOCK_XFER_OPT_*).
The new function was called sock_get_old_sockets() and was left as-is
except a minimum amount of style lifting to make it more readable. It
will never be awesome anyway since it's used very early in the boot
sequence and needs to perform socket I/O without any external help.
This is essentially a merge from tcp_find_compatible_fd() and
uxst_find_compatible_fd() that relies on a listener's address and
compare function and still checks for other variations. For AF_INET6
it compares a few of the listener's bind options. A minor change for
UNIX sockets is that transparent mode, interface and namespace used
to be ignored when trying to pick a previous socket while now if they
are changed, the socket will not be reused. This could be refined but
it's still better this way as there is no more risk of using a
differently bound socket by accident.
Eventually we should not pass a listener there but a set of binding
parameters (address, interface, namespace etc...) which ultimately will
be grouped into a receiver. For now this still doesn't exist so let's
stick to the listener to break dependencies in the rest of the code.
The new file sock.c will contain generic code for standard sockets
relying on file descriptors. We currently have way too much duplication
between proto_uxst, proto_tcp, proto_sockpair and proto_udp.
For now only get_src, get_dst and sock_create_server_socket were moved,
and are used where appropriate.
