ACCF_DATA(9)						   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					      ACCF_DATA(9)

NAME
     accf_data -- buffer incoming connections until data arrives

SYNOPSIS
     options INET
     options ACCEPT_FILTER_DATA
     kldload accf_data

DESCRIPTION
     This is a filter to be placed on a socket that will be using accept() to receive incoming connections.

     It prevents the application from receiving the connected descriptor via accept() until data arrives on the connection.

     The ACCEPT_FILTER_DATA kernel option is also a module that can be enabled at runtime via kldload(8) if the INET option has been compiled into
     the kernel.

EXAMPLES
     Assuming ACCEPT_FILTER_DATA has been included in the kernel config file or the accf_data module has been loaded, this will enable the data
     accept filter on the socket sok.

	     struct accept_filter_arg afa;

	     bzero(&afa, sizeof(afa));
	     strcpy(afa.af_name, "dataready");
	     setsockopt(sok, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ACCEPTFILTER, &afa, sizeof(afa));

HISTORY
     The accept filter mechanism and the accf_data filter were introduced in FreeBSD 4.0.
