.SH NAME
sock_diag \- obtaining information about sockets
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <sys/socket.h>
.B #include <linux/sock_diag.h>
.BR "#include <linux/unix_diag.h>" " /* for UNIX domain sockets */"
.BR "#include <linux/inet_diag.h>" " /* for IPv4 and IPv6 sockets */"
.PP
.BI "diag_socket = socket(AF_NETLINK, " socket_type ", NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG);"
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The sock_diag netlink subsystem provides a mechanism for obtaining
information about sockets of various address families from the kernel.
This subsystem can be used to obtain information about individual
sockets or request a list of sockets.
.PP
In the request, the caller can specify additional information it would
like to obtain about the socket, for example, memory information or
information specific to the address family.
.PP
When requesting a list of sockets, the caller can specify filters that
would be applied by the kernel to select a subset of sockets to report.
For now, there is only the ability to filter sockets by state (connected,
listening, and so on.)
.PP
Note that sock_diag reports only those sockets that have a name;
that is, either sockets bound explicitly with
.BR bind (2)
or sockets that were automatically bound to an address (e.g., by
.BR connect (2)).
This is the same set of sockets that is available via
.IR /proc/net/unix ,
.IR /proc/net/tcp ,
.IR /proc/net/udp ,
and so on.
.\"
.SS Request
The request starts with a
.I "struct nlmsghdr"
header described in
.BR netlink (7)
with
.I nlmsg_type
field set to
.BR SOCK_DIAG_BY_FAMILY .
It is followed by a header specific to the address family that starts with
a common part shared by all address families:
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
struct sock_diag_req {
    __u8 sdiag_family;
    __u8 sdiag_protocol;
};
.EE
.in
.PP
The fields of this structure are as follows:
.TP
.I sdiag_family
An address family.
It should be set to the appropriate
.B AF_*
constant.
.TP
.I sdiag_protocol
Depends on
.IR sdiag_family .
It should be set to the appropriate
.B IPPROTO_*
constant for
.B AF_INET
and
.BR AF_INET6 ,
and to 0 otherwise.
.PP
If the
.I nlmsg_flags
field of the
.I "struct nlmsghdr"
header has the
.BR NLM_F_DUMP
flag set, it means that a list of sockets is being requested;
otherwise it is a query about an individual socket.
.\"
.SS Response
The response starts with a
.I "struct nlmsghdr"
header and is followed by an array of objects specific to the address family.
The array is to be accessed with the standard
.B NLMSG_*
macros from the
.BR netlink (3)
API.
.PP
Each object is the NLA (netlink attributes) list that is to be accessed
with the
.B RTA_*
macros from
.BR rtnetlink (3)
API.
.\"

.SH VERSIONS
.B NETLINK_INET_DIAG
was introduced in Linux 2.6.14 and supported
.B AF_INET
and
.B AF_INET6
sockets only.
In Linux 3.3, it was renamed to
.B NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG
and extended to support
.B AF_UNIX
sockets.
.PP
.B UNIX_DIAG_MEMINFO
and
.BR INET_DIAG_SKMEMINFO
were introduced in Linux 3.6.
.SH CONFORMING TO
The NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG API is Linux-specific.
.SH EXAMPLE
The following example program prints inode number, peer's inode number,
and name of all UNIX domain sockets in the current namespace.
