Hello,
I have been working on the VPN client on ICS on an x86 based device.
The VPN client is currently unable to establish connection with a
server. When I dug deeper into the call stack, I found that the
capable(CAP_NET_RAW) call is failing within the kernel. The call stack
that I have traced is:-
capable(CAP_NET_RAW)
^
sock_bindtodevice (struct sock *sk, char __user *optval, int optlen)
in $HOME/hardware/intel/linux/net/core/sock.c
^
sock_setsockopt (..., optname = SO_BINDTODEVICE, ...) in $HOME/
hardware/intel/linux/net/core/sock.c
^
----------------------------------------------
System call interface
----------------------------------------------
^
setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, "wlan0", 5) in $HOME/
external/mtpd/mtpd.c
I have tried to add the CAP_NET_RAW capability in the mtpd using
cap_get_proc() and cap_set_proc() defined in sys/capability.h in
libcap, but I'm unable to find libcap on ICS.
Could anybody please let me know if there is any other way to set a
process's capability or any other way to approach this issue?
Thank you very much,
Manohar
