[PATCH 0/9] RFC v2: Multicast and filtering features on AF_UNIX

From: Alban Crequy
Date: Mon Nov 22 2010 - 13:36:47 EST


Hi,

This is a new serie of patches, following my first request for comments
here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=128534977610124

It implements a new multicast features on AF_UNIX datagram and
seqpacket sockets.

My motivation is to use it for D-Bus. The kernel code here does not
contain anything specific to D-Bus, so it could be used for other IPC
mechanisms too.

The patches apply on linux-next-20101122 and can be pulled from:

git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/user/alban/linux-2.6.35.y/.git unix-multicast5

Comments & questions welcome! I would appreciate a review on the design
and know if it goes in the right direction.

Regards,
Alban Crequy
