Subject: [PATCH 0/2] connector: Add proc_events for connect/accept

Hi -

It would be extremely useful to have a simple way of mapping pids to network
connections without having to create piles of inotify watches in /proc/ and
/proc/<pid>/fd/ and then search for corresponding inode numbers in
/proc/net/{tcp, udp, ... }.

I've added two simple connector events so that monitoring processes using
connector can get a notification of successful calls to connect/accept. This
allows a monitoring process to be aware of network connections without having
to jump through the inotify+proc parsing hoops.

Thanks,
Joe

Joe Damato (2):
  Create a new connector proc_event for successful calls to connect.
