TCPSnitch: Dissecting the Usage of the Socket API
نویسندگان
چکیده
Networked applications interact with the TCP/IP stack through the socket API. Over the years, various extensions have been added to this popular API. In this paper, we propose and implement the TCPSnitch software that tracks the interactions between Linux and Android applications and the TCP/IP stack. We collect a dataset containing the interactions produced by more than 120 different applications. Our analysis reveals that applications use a variety of API calls. On Android, many applications use various socket options even if the Java API does not expose them directly. TCPSnitch and the associated dataset are publicly available.

IPv6 Socket API for Source Address Selection
The IPv6 default address selection document (RFC 3484) describes the rules for selecting source and destination IPv6 addresses, and indicates that applications should be able to reverse the sense of some of the address selection rules through some unspecified API. However, no such socket API exists in the basic (RFC 3493) or advanced (RFC 3542) IPv6 socket API documents. This document fills tha...

متن کاملOn Sockets and System Calls: Minimizing Context Switches for the Socket API
Traditionally, applications use sockets to access the network. The socket API is well understood and simple to use. However, its simplicity has also limited its efficiency in existing implementations. Specifically, the socket API requires the application to execute many system calls like select, accept, read, and write. Each of these calls crosses the protection boundary between user space and ...
متن کاملبررسی میزان شیوع Dry Socket در مراجعه کنندگان به بخش جراحی دانشکده دندانپزشکی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی تهران، مهرماه 1376 تا تیر ماه 1377
Dry socket is one of the most common complications of teeth extractions. Etiology and pathogenesis of dry socket are not clearly known but many related predisposing factors have been discussed. According to this, a cross- sectional study was conduced at the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery (Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Oct. 97- Jul. 98). 4880 teeth were extracted which 25 ...
متن کاملProgramming Overlay Networks with Overlay Sockets
The emergence of application-layer overlay networks has inspired the development of new network services and applications. Research on overlay networks has focused on the design of protocols to maintain and forward data in an overlay network, however, less attention has been given to the software development process of building application programs in such an environment. Clearly, the complexit...
