I am trying to understaned how to call soreceive from my kext. I am trying to receive data from an ftp server upon connect. My soconnect funtion returns 0 so I am assuming i have a good connect. I am trying to get the welcome message from the ftp server just for confirmation. The soreceive function looks fairly complex and my understanding is that it can do a variety of functions based on its supplied arguments. I just want to receive the welcome message. I do not want to pass it to user space. Upon browsing the kernel sources, I guess this can be accomplished by the following settings, and passing this so soreceive with both the mbufs as NULL. ( I'm guessing the mbufs are provided only if you want the detailed packet header and accompanying data returned possibly as a list of mbufs). I tried it this way but i'm getting a non zero return from soreceive. Any suggestions/links? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
