问题
i am trying adding my own customized layer 4 protocol in linux (ubuntu 14.04) - IPPROTO_MYPROTO as a loadable kernel module. I have done all necessary steps to register the protocol. Here i am sharing my code.
When i am trying to send a mesage from user space program using sendmsg(), i expect the corresponding fn myproto_sendmsg() registered via struct proto structure should be called in kernel space. But what i am observing is that though the myproto_sendmsg() in kernel space is not being called, yet destination machine is receiving the correct data. surprise ! surprise !. Is the default udp sendmsg() fn kicking in here which is like uninvited guest doing his work.
Here, sendmsg() call in user space returns as many bytes as send. Hence, fn returns success.
User space program :
void forwardUDP( int destination_node ,char sendString[] )
{
struct msghdr msg;
destination_node = destination_node % N; //destination node to which data is to be forwaded
int sock, rc;
struct sockaddr_in server_addr;
struct iovec iov;
struct hostent *host; //hostent predefined structure use to store info about host
host = (struct hostent *) gethostbyname(node[destination_node].ip_address);//gethostbyname returns a pointer to hostent
if ((sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, 5)) == -1)
{
perror("socket");
exit(1);
}
//destination address structure
server_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
server_addr.sin_port = htons(node[destination_node].udpportno);
server_addr.sin_addr = *((struct in_addr *)host->h_addr); //host->h_addr gives address of host
bzero(&(server_addr.sin_zero),8);
/* fill the messsage structure*/
memset(&msg, 0 , sizeof(struct msghdr));
memset(&iov, 0, sizeof(struct iovec));
msg.msg_name = (void *)&server_addr;
msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in);
printf("sendString = %s\n", sendString);
iov.iov_base = (void *)sendString;
iov.iov_len = strlen(sendString);
msg.msg_iov = &iov;
printf("len = %d\n", strlen(sendString));
#if 1
msg.msg_iovlen = 1;
msg.msg_control = NULL;
msg.msg_controllen = 0;
msg.msg_flags = 0;
#endif
//sendto(sock, sendString, strlen(sendString), 0,(struct sockaddr *)&server_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr));
**rc = sendmsg(sock, &msg, 0);**
printf("rc = %d\n", rc);
//sendto() function shall send a message through a connectionless-mode socket.
printf("\nFORWARD REQUEST : '%s' has been forwarded to node ---->%d\n",sendString,destination_node);
//close(sock);
}
