t_rcvdis(3xti)

Name

t_rcvdis − retrieve information from disconnect

Syntax

#include <xti.h>
int t_rcvdis(fd, discon)
int fd;
struct t_discon *discon;

Arguments

fd
Identifies the local transport endpoint.

discon
Points to a t_discon structure containing the following members:

struct netbuf udata;
int reason;
int sequence:

The members of the t_discon struct have the following meanings:

udata
Identifies any user data that was sent with the disconnect.

reason
Specifies the reason for the disconnect through a protocol-dependent reason code.

sequence
Identifies an outstanding connect indication with which the connection is associated. The sequence field is only meaningful when t_rcvdis() is issued by a passive transport user who has executed one or more t_listen() functions and is processing the resulting connect indications. If a disconnect indication occurs, sequence can be used to identify which of the outstanding connect indications is associated with the disconnect. 

Description

This function is used to identify the cause of a disconnect and to retrieve any user data sent with the disconnect. 

If a user does not care if there is incoming data and does not need to know the value of reason or sequence, discon may be NULL and any user data associated with the disconnect is discarded.  However, if a user has retrieved more than one outstanding connect indication, by means of t_listen() and discon is NULL, the user will be unable to identify with which connect indication the disconnect is associated. 

Parameters Before Call After Call
fd x /
discon->udata.maxlen x /
discon->udata.len / x
discon->udata.buf x (?)
discon->reason / x
discon->sequence / ?

Return Value

Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned. On failure, a value of -1 is returned, and t_errno() is set to indicate the error.

Diagnostics

On failure, t_errno is set to one of the following:

[TBADF] The specified file descriptor fd  does not refer to a transport endpoint. 

[TOUTSTATE] The function was issued in the wrong sequence on the transport endpoint referenced by fd. 

[TNODIS] No disconnect indication currently exists on the specified transport endpoint. 

[TBUFOVFLW] The number of bytes allocated for incoming data is not sufficient to store the data. If fd is a passive endpoint with ocnt > 1, it remains in state T_INCON; otherwise, the endpoint state is set to T_IDLE. The disconnect indication information to be returned in discon will be discarded. 

[TNOTSUPPORT] This function is not supported by the underlying transport provider. 

[TSYSERR] A system error has occurred during execution of this function.
