    Hi,
      If it is possible to add some process data to a file descriptor structure in
    Linux? So the file descriptor could either save a list of proc pointers or a
    list of PID values. It this list could be made, then sockets could be easily
    identified using process control block hash table. Does anybody know if it is
    possible?
     thanks
