The Network Kernel Extensions Programming Guide, section KEXT Controls and
Notifications, describes how an application client can communicate with a
KEXT via sockets. There is a bare bones code snippet that uses socket,
ioctl, connect, and setsockopt calls. It does not say which framework nor
which header file to use.
I would assume it needs sys/socket.h?
However, there is a header sys/kpi_socket.h that defines a socket api and
all funtions are prefixed with "sock_". The parameters are slightly
different from the functions defined in sys/socket.h.
What are these sock_ calls for? Is the NKE doc in error? Or are the sock_
calls for sockets used only within KEXTs and not a client app talking to a
KEXT?
