реализация протокола IPv4 в Linux (Linux IPv4 protocol implementation)

Примечание (Note)

IP_FREEBIND, IP_MSFILTER, IP_MTU, IP_MTU_DISCOVER,
       IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR, IP_PASSSEC, IP_PKTINFO, IP_RECVERR,
       IP_ROUTER_ALERT, and IP_TRANSPARENT are Linux-specific.

Be very careful with the SO_BROADCAST option - it is not privileged in Linux. It is easy to overload the network with careless broadcasts. For new application protocols it is better to use a multicast group instead of broadcasting. Broadcasting is discouraged.

Some other BSD sockets implementations provide IP_RCVDSTADDR and IP_RECVIF socket options to get the destination address and the interface of received datagrams. Linux has the more general IP_PKTINFO for the same task.

Some BSD sockets implementations also provide an IP_RECVTTL option, but an ancillary message with type IP_RECVTTL is passed with the incoming packet. This is different from the IP_TTL option used in Linux.

Using the SOL_IP socket options level isn't portable; BSD-based stacks use the IPPROTO_IP level.

INADDR_ANY (0.0.0.0) and INADDR_BROADCAST (255.255.255.255) are byte-order-neutral. This means htonl(3) has no effect on them.

Compatibility For compatibility with Linux 2.0, the obsolete socket(AF_INET, SOCK_PACKET, protocol) syntax is still supported to open a packet(7) socket. This is deprecated and should be replaced by socket(AF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, protocol) instead. The main difference is the new sockaddr_ll address structure for generic link layer information instead of the old sockaddr_pkt.
