Socket interface functions
Modules§
- Socket options as used by
setsockopt
andgetsockopt
.
Structs§
- Socket address for the Linux kernel crypto API
- Flags for send/recv and their relatives
- Address for the Linux kernel user interface device.
- Contains outcome of sending or receiving a message
- Additional socket options
- Configuration flags for
SO_TIMESTAMPING
interface - For representing packet timestamps via
SO_TIMESTAMPING
interface - A wrapper around
sockaddr_un
. - Unix credentials of the sending process.
- Socket address for VMWare VSockets protocol
Enums§
- These constants specify the protocol family to be used in
socket
andsocketpair
- A type-safe zero-copy wrapper around a single control message, as used wih
sendmsg
. More types may be added to this enum; do not exhaustively pattern-match it. - A type-safe wrapper around a single control message, as used with
recvmsg
. - Sock
Addr Deprecated Represents a socket address - Constants used in
socket
andsocketpair
to specify the protocol to use. - These constants are used to specify the communication semantics when creating a socket with
socket()
Traits§
- Represents a socket option that can be retrieved.
- Represents a socket option that can be set.
- Anything that, in C, can be cast back and forth to
sockaddr
.
Functions§
- Accept a connection on a socket
- Accept a connection on a socket
- Bind a name to a socket
- Initiate a connection on a socket
- Get the address of the peer connected to the socket
fd
. - Get the current address to which the socket
fd
is bound. - Get the current value for the requested socket option
- Listen for connections on a socket
- Receive data from a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read
- Receive data from a connectionless or connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read and, for connectionless sockets, the socket address of the sender.
- An extension of recvmsg that allows the caller to receive multiple messages from a socket using a single system call.
- Receive message in scatter-gather vectors from a socket, and optionally receive ancillary data into the provided buffer. If no ancillary data is desired, use () as the type parameter.
- Send data to a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read
- An extension of
sendmsg
that allows the caller to transmit multiple messages on a socket using a single system call. This has performance benefits for some applications. - Send data in scatter-gather vectors to a socket, possibly accompanied by ancillary data. Optionally direct the message at the given address, as with sendto.
- Send a message to a socket
- Sets the value for the requested socket option
- Shut down part of a full-duplex connection.
- sockaddr_
storage_ to_ addr Deprecated Return the appropriateSockAddr
type from asockaddr_storage
of a certain size. - Create an endpoint for communication
- Create a pair of connected sockets
Type Aliases§
Unions§
- A container for any sockaddr type
