xref: /openbsd/gnu/usr.bin/perl/dist/Net-Ping/TODO (revision f2a19305)
1TODO list for Net::Ping (in case anyone is looking for things to do)
2
3- More IPv6 support
4Some options like IP_TOS and IP_TTL are not available on IPv6
5
6- POD rewriting
7Some things, such as the return from $p->ping(), are cryptic.  The location of the
8source is off as well.
9
10- Device
11Setting the device uses SO_BINDTODEVICE.  This is Linux-only and should not work anywhere
12else.  I think deprecating this is probably the right thing to do.
13
14-TOS
15The incoming TOS value can be just about anything from my testing.  This valid values are
16supposed to be (in decimal) 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 assuming we aren't talking DS and ECN.
17I don't know right now if this is a bug in Socket, Darwin (tesing on Mac OS X currently)
18or if that's just the way it is.  Time for some C level testing for this one.
19P.S. TOS is IPv4 only.
20
21- Tests
22Nicholas Clark converted the tests to Test::More which is a good start.  The tests need some
23cleanup and modernizing.  Below is the current test coverage when testing as root.

32This needs to be quite a bit higher all around to make me comfortable with a refactor.
