[PATCH net-next 01/15] net: bus: Add AF_BUS socket address family

From: Vincent Sanders
Date: Fri Jun 29 2012 - 12:46:42 EST


From: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier.martinez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds AF_BUS to the socket headers and net core.

AF_BUS is a message oriented inter process communication system
implemented as asocket address family. The principle features are:

- Reliable datagram based communication (all sockets are of type
SOCK_SEQPACKET)
- Multicast message delivery (one to many, unicast as a subset)
- Strict ordering (messages are delivered to every client in the same order)
- Ability to pass file descriptors
- Ability to pass credentials
