Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

Linux Kernel SCTP
|
|
|
|
This is the current BETA release of the Linux Kernel SCTP reference
|
|
implementation.
|
|
|
|
SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) is a IP based, message oriented,
|
|
reliable transport protocol, with congestion control, support for
|
|
transparent multi-homing, and multiple ordered streams of messages.
|
|
RFC2960 defines the core protocol. The IETF SIGTRAN working group originally
|
|
developed the SCTP protocol and later handed the protocol over to the
|
|
Transport Area (TSVWG) working group for the continued evolvement of SCTP as a
|
|
general purpose transport.
|
|
|
|
See the IETF website (http://www.ietf.org) for further documents on SCTP.
|
|
See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2960.txt
|
|
|
|
The initial project goal is to create an Linux kernel reference implementation
|
|
of SCTP that is RFC 2960 compliant and provides an programming interface
|
|
referred to as the UDP-style API of the Sockets Extensions for SCTP, as
|
|
proposed in IETF Internet-Drafts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Caveats:
|
|
|
|
-lksctp can be built as statically or as a module. However, be aware that
|
|
module removal of lksctp is not yet a safe activity.
|
|
|
|
-There is tentative support for IPv6, but most work has gone towards
|
|
implementation and testing lksctp on IPv4.
