Hi all,
I noticed a few minutes ago that buildhosts seem to be unable to create
SCTP sockets. For instance, a call to something like this would fail:
fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_SCTP);
So the socket call is returning -1 and strerror(errno) shows:
"Protocol not supported"
Which to me means the kernel in use doesn't seem to have sctp built-in
or the host is somehow configured to prevent loading it.
So now the question is, am I correct with my understanding? And if
that's the case, is there any good reason to disable support for SCTP?
Having no SCTP support in the kernel means I need to disable some unit
tests of the package I'm building (libosmocore), which verify that APIs
work well on different distributions (versions) and architectures.
PS: Please add me in CC to answers.
