T_RCVCONNECT(3N) SysV T_RCVCONNECT(3N)
NAME
t_rcvconnect - receive the confirmation from a connect request
SYNOPSIS
#include <tiuser.h>
int t_rcvconnect(fd, call)
int fd;
struct t_call *call;
DESCRIPTION
This function enables a calling transport user to determine the status of
a previously sent connect request and is used in conjunction with
t_connect to establish a connection in asynchronous mode. The connection
will be established on successful completion of the function.
fd identifies the local transport endpoint where communication will be
established, and call contains information associated with the newly
established connection. call points to a t_call structure which contains
the following members:
struct netbuf addr;
struct netbuf opt;
struct netbuf udata;
int sequence;
netbuf is described in intro(3). In call, addr returns the protocol
address associated with the responding transport endpoint, opt presents
any protocol-specific information associated with the connection, udata
points to optional user data that may be returned by the destination
transport user during connection establishment, and sequence has no
meaning for this function.
The maxlen (see netbuf in intro(3)) field of each argument must be set
before issuing this function to indicate the maximum size of the buffer
for each. However, call may be NULL, in which case no information is
given to the user on return from t_rcvconnect. By default, t_rcvconnect
executes in synchronous mode and waits for the connection to be
established before returning. On return, the addr, opt, and udata fields
reflect values associated with the connection.
If O_NDELAY is set (via t_open or fcntl), t_rcvconnect executes in
asynchronous mode, and reduces to a poll for existing connect
confirmations. If none are available, t_rcvconnect fails and returns
immediately without waiting for the connection to be established. (See
TNODATA below.) t_rcvconnect must be re-issued at a later time to
complete the connection establishment phase and retrieve the information
returned in call.
DIAGNOSTICS
t_rcvconnect returns 0 on success and -1 on failure and t_errno is set to
indicate the error.
ERRORS
On failure, t_errno may be set to one of the following:
[TBADF] The specified file descriptor does not refer to a
transport endpoint.
[TBUFOVFLW] The number of bytes allocated for an incoming
argument is not sufficient to store the value of that
argument and the connect information to be returned
in call will be discarded. The provider's state, as
seen by the user, will be changed to DATAXFER.
[TNODATA] O_NDELAY was set, but a connect confirmation has not
yet arrived.
[TLOOK] An asynchronous event has occurred on this transport
connection and requires immediate attention.
[TNOTSUPPORT] This function is not supported by the underlying
transport provider.
[TSYSERR] A system error has occurred during execution of this
function.
