Expand description

Low-level protocol logic for the SCTP protocol

sctp-proto contains a fully deterministic implementation of SCTP protocol logic. It contains no networking code and does not get any relevant timestamps from the operating system. Most users may want to use the futures-based sctp-async API instead.

The sctp-proto API might be of interest if you want to use it from a C or C++ project through C bindings or if you want to use a different event loop than the one tokio provides.

The most important types are Endpoint, which conceptually represents the protocol state for a single socket and mostly manages configuration and dispatches incoming datagrams to the related Association. Association types contain the bulk of the protocol logic related to managing a single association and all the related state (such as streams).

Structs

Association represents an SCTP association
Events sent from an Endpoint to an Association
Internal identifier for an Association currently associated with an endpoint
Association statistics
A chunk of data from the stream
ChunkPayloadData represents an SCTP Chunk of type DATA
Chunks is a set of chunks that share the same SSN
Configuration for outgoing associations
The main entry point to the library
Global configuration for the endpoint, affecting all associations
Events sent from an Association to an Endpoint
ErrorCauseCode is a cause code that appears in either a ERROR or ABORT chunk
Parameters governing incoming associations
Stream represents an SCTP stream
StreamState represents the state of an SCTP stream
Incoming/outgoing Transmit
Config collects the arguments to create_association construction into a single structure

Enums

Reasons why an association might be lost
Errors in the parameters being used to create a new association
Event resulting from processing a single datagram
Explicit congestion notification codepoint
Errors triggered during SCTP association operation
Events of interest to the application
Payload in Incoming/outgoing Transmit
PayloadProtocolIdentifier is an enum for DataChannel payload types
Reliability type for stream
Whether an endpoint was the initiator of an association
Application events about streams

Type Definitions

Protocol-level identifier for an Association.
Identifier for a stream within a particular association
