60.Sh DESCRIPTION
61Network protocols installed in the system are maintained within what
62are called domains
63(for example the
64.Va inetdomain
65and
66.Va localdomain ) .

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.
95.Bd -literal
96struct protosw {

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