Hi all,

I'm working on a project involving ASI (Advanced Switching
Interconnect) which defines a new switching fabric architecture
(www.asi-sig.org).

For some of the ASI protocols intended for use by endpoint
and switch devices to communicate, we would like to implement
them under the Socket transport architecture in Linux 2.6.

The current ASI software architecture proposes registering a
new socket protocol family called PF_ASI from a loadable module.
We would eventually like to reserve a number in linux/socket.h
for PF_ASI (currently there are some unused numbers in 2.6: 21, 27, 28, 29 and 30).


Does anyone see any potential issues with getting a Socket protocol
family number assigned for ASI?

Thank you for any pointers you can provide.
