// Package ipv4 implements IP-level socket options for the Internet
8
// The package provides IP-level socket options that allow
9
// manipulation of IPv4 facilities.
11
// The IPv4 protocol and basic host requirements for IPv4 are defined
12
// in RFC 791 and RFC 1122.
13
// Host extensions for multicasting and socket interface extensions
14
// for multicast source filters are defined in RFC 1112 and RFC 3678.
15
// IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 are defined in RFC 1112, RFC 2236 and RFC
17
// Source-specific multicast is defined in RFC 4607.
22
// The options for unicasting are available for net.TCPConn,
23
// net.UDPConn and net.IPConn which are created as network connections
24
// that use the IPv4 transport. When a single TCP connection carrying
25
// a data flow of multiple packets needs to indicate the flow is
26
// important, ipv4.Conn is used to set the type-of-service field on
27
// the IPv4 header for each packet.
