Description: Multipath TCP Converter
The Multipath TCP Converter tool - mptcpize - helps to enable MPTCP usage
on unmodified legacy services. It can run programs forcing MPTCP socket
usage instead of TCP. It can also update systemd units to force them to
run under mptcpize launcher.
.
To use MPTCP on a Linux kernel, it is required to explicitly create an
MPTCP socket. In theory, it is then needed to modify an existing program
to benefit from MPTCP. In practice, 'socket()' syscall can be modified
to create an MPTCP socket instead of TCP. This is done with the help of
libmptcpwrap and LD_PRELOAD.
