The socket buffer with SCTP is just not something thats workable. There are
all sorts of pre-defined notions that closely align a socket buffer to stream-of-bytes
semantics of TCP. With UDP its never an issue, since you have all un-ordered who
cares up come the messages.
With SCTP there are all sorts of interesting ordering constraints and settings that
make it so that you can't just read from a linear socket buffer.
We definitely would need a completely different abstraction!
