Multipath TCP Converter

Description

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.
