What makes these sctp_* syscalls so special as opposed to their
generic and protocol agnostic counterparts?
They're used for operations which do not have a direct correspondence in the existing functions, i.e. connecting to multihomed peers, and dealing with one-to-many sockets.

See Section 9.3-9.12, UNIX Network Programming Vol 1 3e for more info.


generally we would use socket ops or ioctls for this sort of thing..
syscalls is not how they would normally be done....
