This patch implements section 5.3.4. of RFC6458, that is, support
for 'SCTP Send Information Structure' (SCTP_SNDINFO) which can be
placed into ancillary data cmsghdr structure for sendmsg() calls.
The sctp_sndinfo structure is defined as per RFC as below ...
struct sctp_sndinfo {
uint16_t snd_sid;
uint16_t snd_flags;
uint32_t snd_ppid;
uint32_t snd_context;
sctp_assoc_t snd_assoc_id;
};
... and supplied under cmsg_level IPPROTO_SCTP, cmsg_type
SCTP_SNDINFO, while cmsg_data[] contains struct sctp_sndinfo.
An sctp_sndinfo item always corresponds to the data in msg_iov.
Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.
