MariGNOtti
MariGNOtti is a network driver for GNO/ME 2.0.6. It provides a translation layer between BSD sockets and Marinetti. Think of it as a replacement for GSTCP.
Installation:
- copy the
marignotti
,ftp
,sic
, andwhois
executables to your/usr/local/bin
directory.
-
ftp
is an update of the gno 2.0.6 ftp (it adds passive ftp support). -
whois
is an updated version (from FreeBSD 9.0). The gno 2.0.6 version is from FreeBSD 2.1. -
sic
is a very simple irc client.Example:
sic -h irc.a2central.com -p 6667 -n myname (a bunch of messages) :j #a2c.chat << join a room
-
copy the
etc/services
file to/etc/services
(if it does not exist). -
edit and copy the
etc/resolve.conf
file to/etc/resolve.conf
(if it does not exist). This file is your DNS server -
If you don not have a DNS server, edit
/etc/hosts
to include your favorite sites.
Usage:
Run marignotti in the background (marignotti &
). To quit, bring it to the
foreground (fg
) and hit control-C
.
If you are using the Sweet-16 emulator version 3.0, marignotti -d
will print
some debugging information to the debugger console. marignotti -dd
will
enable extra debugging information (including the contents of reads and
writes).
What it does:
While marignotti is running in the background, it translates BSD socket calls into Marinetti tool calls. It also handles blocking IO, socket options, select, etc.
Architecture:
BSD sockets are, by default, blocking whereas everything Marinetti does (other than the inital network connection) is non-blocking. To handle blocking behavior, each socket has a semaphore. The main thread performs all the polling and uses the semaphore to signal the other threads when they can proceed.
Supported:
socket
-- only support for PF_UNIX
, SOCK_STREAM
, and SOCK_DGRAM
.
connect
-- but non-blocking connects are not yet supported.
bind
-- currently a no-op since the old whois
used it.
read
/recv
/recvfrom
-- supports blocking, non-blocking, timeouts, and RCVLOWAT
.
The address parameter of recvfrom
is not supported. OOB is not supported.
write
/send
/sendto
-- does not support SNDLOWAT
, OOB, or the address parameter
of sendto
.
close
-- does not support SOLINGER
type functionality.
shutdown
-- sets flags but the flags are not completely implemented.
ioctl
-- support for FIONREAD
(bytes available to read) and FIONBIO
(set/clear non-blocking).
getsockopt
-- support for SO_OOBINLINE
, SO_SNDLOWAT
, SO_RCVLOWAT
,
SO_SNDTIMEO
, SO_RCVTIMEO
, SNDLOWAT
and SNDTIMEO
set flags but don not have any
other effect. OOBINLINE
is only be supported when true.
getsockopt
-- support for SO_TYPE
, SO_OOBINLINE
, SO_SNDLOWAT
, SO_RCVLOWAT
,
SO_SNDTIMEO
Not (yet) supported:
- OOB (out of band) data (and will never be supported).
- raw sockets (
SOCK_RAW
) - TCP servers (
listen
/accept
). Should be simple, though. - UDP servers
