Abstract
An enhanced address domain is presented herein. A system can comprise a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising: creating an upper-layer socket of an enhanced address domain; allocating a protocol control block (PCB) and associating the PCB with the upper-layer socket—the PCB storing information representing a private state of the upper-layer socket; creating a lower-layer socket of an existing address domain—the lower-layer socket referenced from the upper-layer socket using the PCB; and installing upcall(s) on the lower-layer socket to be intercepted via the enhanced address domain. In an aspect, the upper-layer socket supports enhancement(s) to the existing address domain and a socket type of the lower-layer socket.
