I think I have a really great idea to implement into the Linux kernel. But can actually not find any place to talk with anybody about this. It is about tcp_doors, a door equivalent like Solaris > 2.51 is using but then built onto the tcp layer. It will have great impact into a lot of OS stuff like mem mngmnt, IPC, function, security, a lot of other exceptions and stack management to name a few. I want to know what your ideas are and how something like this should be set up.
