61Network protocols installed in the system are maintained within what

89};
90.Ed
91.Pp
92Each domain contains an array of protocol switch structures
93.Pq Vt "struct protosw *" ,
94one for each socket type supported.

115.Ed
116.Pp
117The following functions handle the registration of a new domain,
118lookups of specific protocols and protocol types within those domains,
119and handle control messages from the system.
120.Pp
121.Fn pfctlinput
122is called by the system whenever an event occurs that could affect every
123domain.
124Examples of those types of events are routing table changes, interface
125shutdowns or certain
126.Tn ICMP
127message types.
128When called,
129.Fn pfctlinput
130calls the protocol specific
131.Fn pr_ctlinput
132function for each protocol in that has defined one, in every domain.
133.Pp
134.Fn pfctlinput2
135provides that same functionality of
136.Fn pfctlinput ,
137but with a few additional checks and a new
138.Vt "void *"
139argument that is passed directly to the protocol's
140.Fn pr_ctlinput
141function.
142Unlike
143.Fn pfctlinput ,
144.Fn pfctlinput2
145verifies that
146.Fa sa
147is not
148.Dv NULL ,
149and that only the protocol families that are the same as
150.Fa sa
151have their
152.Fn pr_ctlinput
153function called.
154.Pp
155.Fn domain_add
156adds a new protocol domain to the system.
157The argument
158.Fa data
159is cast directly to
160.Vt "struct domain *"
161within the function, but is declared
162.Vt "void *"
163in order to prevent compiler warnings when new domains are registered with
164.Fn SYSINIT .
165In most cases
166.Fn domain_add
167is not called directly, instead
168.Fn DOMAIN_SET
169is used.
170.Pp
171If the new domain has defined an initialization routine, it is called by
172.Fn domain_add ;
173as well, each of the protocols within the domain that have defined an
174initialization routine will have theirs called.
175.Pp
176Once a domain is added it cannot be unloaded.
177This is because there is
178no reference counting system in place to determine if there are any
179active references from sockets within that domain.
180.Pp
181.Fn pffinddomain
182finds a domain by family.
183If the domain cannot be found,
184.Dv NULL
185is returned.
186.Pp
187.Fn pffindtype
188and
189.Fn pffindproto
190look up a protocol by its number or by its type.
191In most cases, if the protocol or type cannot be found,
192.Dv NULL
193is returned, but
194.Fn pffindproto
195may return the default if the requested type is
196.Dv SOCK_RAW ,
197a protocol switch type of
198.Dv SOCK_RAW
199is found, and the domain has a default raw protocol.
200.Pp
201Both functions are called by
202.Fn socreate
203in order to resolve the protocol for the socket currently being created.
204.Pp
205.Fn DOMAIN_SET
206is a macro that simplifies the registration of a domain via
207.Fn SYSINIT .
208The code resulting from the macro expects there to be a domain structure
209named
210.Dq Fa name Ns Li domain
211where
212.Fa name
213is the argument to
214.Fn DOMAIN_SET :
215.Bd -literal
216struct domain localdomain =
217{ AF_LOCAL, "local", unp_init, unp_externalize, unp_dispose,
218  localsw, &localsw[sizeof(localsw)/sizeof(localsw[0])] };
219
220DOMAIN_SET(local);
221.Ed
222.Sh RETURN VALUES
223Both
224.Fn pffindtype
225and
226.Fn pffindproto
227return a
228.Vt "struct protosw *"
229for the protocol requested.
230If the protocol or socket type is not found,
231.Dv NULL
232is returned.
233In the case of
234.Fn pffindproto ,
235the default protocol may be returned for
236.Dv SOCK_RAW
237types if the domain has a default raw protocol.
