Linux SCTP implementation status

Question

Some time ago I had used SCTP on Linux and now I want to use it again in new project. The problem is that, lksctp seems to be dead, there were no updated since 2009 (according to git). In this time few important things changed in SCTP draft, so lksctp is now out of date (API for example)

I tried to find other implementation of this protocol, but it looks, that lksctp is the only one. Doy you have any information about SCTP future on Linux?

Answer 1

The lksctp project first developed the Linux implementation but it is now part of the core linux Kernel and maintained there. This explains why there is little activity on the lksctp project and it does not indicate that the implementation is dead at all. Indeed I am responsible for a product line for which the Linux SCTP implementation is a central, and very reliable, component.
