Hello experts,

[ sorry if  my questions are irrelevent to any one of you ].

I am trying to develop a frame work, where i  transport all HTTP traffic
over SCTP. On user space, i can do this easily over SCTP, BSD-style
sockets. If i am to write a kernel module(say in-kernel web
client/server) using kernel version of SCTP interfaces, what are the
available calls now supported ? I see in-kernel implementation like
NFS/RPC make kernel version of UDP and TCP _sendmsg, i don't find
similar interfaces for SCTP..
Look at fs/dlm/lowcomms.c

All you need to do is use IPPROTO_SCTP when creating a socket in
the kernel and then I believe you can use all the same calls as TCP/UDP.
