Phonet: provide pipe socket option to retrieve the pipe identifier
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
User-space sometimes needs this information. In particular, the GPRS
context or the AT commands pipe setups may use the pipe handle as a
reference.

This removes the settable pipe handle with CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR.
It did not handle error cases correctly. Furthermore, the kernel
*could* implement a smart scheme for allocating handles (if ever
needed), but userspace really cannot.

interface index of the network interface created by PNPIPE_ENCAP,
or zero if encapsulation is off.

PNPIPE_HANDLE is a read-only integer value. It contains the underlying
identifier ("pipe handle") of the pipe. This is only defined for
socket descriptors that are already connected or being connected.

The implementation adds socket options at SOL_PNPIPE level:

PNPIPE_PIPE_HANDLE
It accepts an integer argument for setting value of pipe handle.

PNPIPE_ENABLE accepts one integer value (int). If set to zero, the pipe
is disabled. If the value is non-zero, the pipe is enabled. If the pipe
is not (yet) connected, ENOTCONN is error is returned.
