Definitions¶
event-type¶
- type:
enum
- enum-name:
mptcp-event-type
- name-prefix:
mptcp-event-
- entries:
- unspec:
unused event
- created:
token, family, saddr4 | saddr6, daddr4 | daddr6, sport, dport A new MPTCP connection has been created. It is the good time to allocate memory and send ADD_ADDR if needed. Depending on the traffic-patterns it can take a long time until the MPTCP_EVENT_ESTABLISHED is sent.
- established:
token, family, saddr4 | saddr6, daddr4 | daddr6, sport, dport A MPTCP connection is established (can start new subflows).
- closed:
token A MPTCP connection has stopped.
- announced:
token, rem_id, family, daddr4 | daddr6 [, dport] A new address has been announced by the peer.
- removed:
token, rem_id An address has been lost by the peer.
- sub-established:
token, family, loc_id, rem_id, saddr4 | saddr6, daddr4 | daddr6, sport, dport, backup, if_idx [, error] A new subflow has been established. ‘error’ should not be set.
- sub-closed:
token, family, loc_id, rem_id, saddr4 | saddr6, daddr4 | daddr6, sport, dport, backup, if_idx [, error] A subflow has been closed. An error (copy of sk_err) could be set if an error has been detected for this subflow.
- sub-priority:
token, family, loc_id, rem_id, saddr4 | saddr6, daddr4 | daddr6, sport, dport, backup, if_idx [, error] The priority of a subflow has changed. ‘error’ should not be set.
- listener-created:
family, sport, saddr4 | saddr6 A new PM listener is created.
- listener-closed:
family, sport, saddr4 | saddr6 A PM listener is closed.
