In addition, the implementation +introduces a structure for network communications which may be +used by system implementors in adding new networking +facilities. The internal structure is not visible +to the user, rather it is intended to aid implementors +of communication protocols and network services by +providing a framework which +promotes code sharing and minimizes implementation effort. +.PP +The reader is expected to be familiar with the C programming +language and system interface, as described in the +\fIBerkeley Software Architecture Manual, 4.4BSD Edition\fP [Joy86]. +Basic understanding of network +communication concepts is assumed; where required +any additional ideas are introduced. +.PP +The remainder of this document +provides a description of the system internals, +avoiding, when possible, those portions which are utilized only +by the interprocess communication facilities. |
