Re: Suggested extensions to python-inet_diag library

In looking for faster way to retrieve information about open sockets on a system I stumbled across python-inet_diag. The library is very useful however it was missing the query / filter code found in socketstat (Alexey Kuznetsov) which it seems to be based on. I would like to propose the following patches to implement source and destination IP and port filters for the inet_diag.create function. Best Regards, James Hulka socketstat_filter.patch : inet_diag.c: added filter building code from socketstat (Alexey Kuznetsov, <kuznet(a)ms2.inr.ac.ru>) added filter options to create function added create function documentation diag_filter.h: new header file added various filter condition constants added diag_filter structure process_info.patch : inet_diag.c: added process info parsing from socketstat (Alexey Kuznetsov, <kuznet(a)ms2.inr.ac.ru>) req_v2.patch : inet_diag.c: using req_v2 and specifying protocol type in header retreiving full process path return proc as struct leak_fixes.patch : inet_diag.c: cleanup memory leaks and reformat memory cleanup user_ent_hash inet_diag_copy.h: unused removed listening_states.patch : inet_diag.c: added listening states constant added process, pid and fd getter functions cleanup memory leaks and reformat memory cleanup user_ent_hash
