Plan 9 does exactly this but all networking protocols live in /net - ethernet, tcp, udp, tls, icmp, etc. The dial string in the form of "net!address!service" abstracts the protocol from the application. A program can dial tcp!1.2.3.4!7788 or maybe udp!1.2.3.4!7788. How about raw Ethernet? /net/ether1!aabbccddeeff!12345. The dial(2) routine takes a dial string and returns an fd you read() and write(). Very simple networking API. |
