[tipc-discussion] Query : Socket options supported in latest tipc - kernel version 4.18

[Amit J. <ami...@te...>]

Hi All,

We want to understand the socket options supported in tipc (specifically
for UDP bearers). TIPC supports socket options at 2 different levels -
SOL_SOCKET and SOL_TIPC.

In the previous document version it was explicitly mentioned  “TIPC does
not currently support many socket options for level SOL_SOCKET, such as
SO_SNDBUF. Options that are supported include SO_RCVTIMEO (for all socket
types) and SO_RCVLOWAT (for SOCK_STREAM only)“

In the new documentation, there is no such explicit mention. But SO_RCVBUF
is explicitly mentioned to be supported at level of SOL_SOCKET.  What about
the other socket options like -

SO_SNDBUF, SO_SNDBUFFORCE , SO_RCVBUFFORCE , SO_KEEPALIVE, SO_REUSEADDR,
SO_LINGER, SO_RCVLOWAT and SO_SNDLOWAT, SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO,
SO_TIMESTAMP, SO_MARK , SO_OOBINLINE ; Are these applicable for tipc
sockets ?

Regards,

Amit
