Re: Wiring up direct socket calls on x86_32 Linux?

Hi all-

sys_socketcall sucks.  If nothing else, it's impossible to filter with
seccomp.  Should we wire up the real socket calls so that user code
can (very slowly) start migrating?

I think the list is:
 - socket
 - bind
 - connect
 - listen
 - accept4
 - getsockname
 - getpeername
 - socketpair
 - send
 - sendto
 - sendmsg
 - recv
 - recvfrom
 - recvmsg
 - shutdown
 - setsockopt

I guess you might want to follow the patch Raji sent today [1].

Her patch doesn't have all the syscalls you mentioned here, but has others too.
She will work to get a generic implementation for these functions.
