Subject: [SCTP-Discussion] polling problem

Hello all,

I have a specific question about implementation.

My goal is to make a some kind for ss7 mtp2 SCTP tunnel. It should be

something like sigtran m2peer. It is not professional solution. I am

working on it within my diploma work.

I need to poll not only SCTP sockets, STDIN or UDP sockets. I need to

poll also my LiS STREAMS file descriptor, where resides my driver for

SS7 device /Which I wrote with compliant with openss7.org project/.

[Tuexen Michael] This will be possible with the next
prerelease where user defined file descriptors are supported.

I have looked at file adaptation.c. I realized there is no support for

this. I dont't want to poll SCTP socket and LiS fd alternately becouse

of performance. I would like to try to suppose a soluion of this

problem.

If an (user) applicaton would know an active SCTP fildes, it could poll

for set of SCTP and LIS(or any other general) filedes. If an POLLIN,

POLLPRI, or POLLERR occures on SCTP fds, then application should call a

sctp_getEvents in order to sevice SCTP events.

[Tuexen Michael] This should remain in the sctplib. With
the user defined filedescriptor support there should be no need
to do this in your app.

But normally an aplicaton doesn't know these SCTP file descriptors -> it

can't poll them. The structure poll_fds is declared static

/adaptation.c/. I suppose to write and add a simple function which would

return a poll_fds structure.

I am not an experienced programmmer. Is this approach good? Or can I

solve my problem easier? The second approach is of course to add support

for registrating callbacks for user-defined general filedescriptors. It

seems it requests bigger changes at adaptation.c.

[Tuexen Michael] It will be in pre10

Thank You!

[Tuexen Michael] Are you using the openss7 stack for
MTP in combination with our SCTP implementation? Would be great.
Best regards
Michael
