ACCEPT_FILTER(9) Kernel Developer's Manual ACCEPT_FILTER(9) NAME accept_filter, accept_filt_add, accept_filt_del, accept_filt_generic_mod_event, accept_filt_get -- filter incoming con- nections SYNOPSIS #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/module.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #define ACCEPT_FILTER_MOD #include <sys/socketvar.h> int accept_filt_add(struct accept_filter *filt); int accept_filt_del(char *name); int accept_filt_generic_mod_event(module_t mod, int event, void *data); struct accept_filter * accept_filt_get(char *name); DESCRIPTION Accept filters allow an application to request that the kernel pre- process incoming connections. An accept filter is requested via the setsockopt(2) system call, passing in an optname of SO_ACCEPTFILTER. IMPLEMENTATION NOTES A module that wants to be an accept filter must provide a struct accept_filter to the system: struct accept_filter { char accf_name[16]; void (*accf_callback)(struct socket *so, void *arg, int waitflag); void * (*accf_create)(struct socket *so, char *arg); void (*accf_destroy)(struct socket *so); SLIST_ENTRY(accept_filter) accf_next; /* next on the list */ }; The module should register it with the function accept_filt_add(), passing a pointer to a struct accept_filter, allocated with malloc(9). The fields of struct accept_filter are as follows: accf_name Name of the filter; this is how it will be accessed from userland. accf_callback The callback that the kernel will do once the connection is established. It is the same as a socket upcall and will be called when the connection is established and whenever new data arrives on the socket, unless the callback modifies the socket's flags. accf_create Called whenever a setsockopt(2) installs the filter onto a listening socket. accf_destroy Called whenever the user removes the accept filter on the socket. The accept_filt_del() function passed the same string used in accept_filter.accf_name during registration with accept_filt_add(), the kernel will then disallow and further userland use of the filter. The accept_filt_get() function is used internally to locate which ac- cept filter to use via the setsockopt(2) system call. The accept_filt_generic_mod_event() function provides a simple way to avoid duplication of code for accept filters which do not use the argu- ment field to load and unload themselves. This function can be used in the moduledata_t struct for the DECLARE_MODULE(9) macro.

The accept filter concept was pioneered by David Filo at Yahoo! and re- fined to be a loadable module system by Alfred Perlstein. FreeBSD 13.2 June 25, 2000 ACCEPT_FILTER(9)
