While the SCTP API hasn't gone through last call, it's fairly stable and we have both "converted" many applications from TCP to SCTP using the sockets API, as well as had portability between the KAME SCTP stack and the linux stack for some test applications used at the last interop event (except for the standard sockets issues that one runs into even for TCP like no sin_length field in the sockaddr struct). I'm not aware of any KAME SNAP compilation failures w/and w/o SCTP. The major changes to our SCTP code when it gets committed into KAME has been that of code format/style.
What I found was the following two issues. Although these two are technically quite trivial, what I was fearing was a lack of report to KAME, since this may mean a lack of KAME-SCTP users.
- inconsistency between KAME specific kernel code and SCTP leads to an kernel compilation error. Of course, it's a technically trivial bug and our own bug.
- including SCTP in getaddrinfo() causes 'configure' script error
in many ports applications.
This is also a trivial problem, and maybe specific to KAME SCTP.
And some of such ports are already fixed when I encounter this
problem.
(e.g.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/lang/python/files/patch-configure.diff?r1=1.7&r2=1.8)
But now I understand that lack of report does not mean a lack of testing users (since SCTP-lovers seems communicating directly to your team). So I can be much more optimistic now, and don't object to merging it into -current, since such trivial bugs can be fixed easily in -current. (I myself haven't tested SCTP very well, so I cannot comment on its stability itself. But at least, SCTP does not seem to affect the behavior of other protocols)
Thanks and sorry if you feel my previous comments were insulting...
