| Hello,
When calling errno_t sock_connect(socket_t so, const struct sockaddr *to, int flags) from a kernel extension, how long should I keep the struct sockaddr *to before deallocating it ? I guess, I could keep it around until the connection closes, to be safe. But is there such requirement ?
In an other context, when a socket filter receives a pointer to such structure during a call to sf_connect_out or sf_connect_in, should it store the pointer or a copy of the structure ?
Cheers, Jean |
