       t_rcvdis(3N)                                            t_rcvdis(3N)


       NAME
             t_rcvdis - retrieve information from disconnect

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [options] file -lnsl
             #include <xti.h>
             int t_rcvdis(int fd, struct t_discon *discon);

          Parameters
             fd      the file descriptor for the transport endpoint where
                     the connection had been established.

             discon  points to the t_discon structure associated with the
                     disconnect information.

       DESCRIPTION
             This function is a TLI/XTI connection release routine used to
             identify the cause of a disconnect and to retrieve any user
             data sent with the disconnect.

             fd is used by the calling transport user to identify the local
             transport endpoint where the connection existed, and on return
             discon points to the information associated with the
             disconnection.

          Structure Definitions
             The discon argument points to a t_discon structure containing
             the following members:

                         struct netbuf udata;    /* user data      */
                         int reason;       /* reason code    */
                         int sequence;           /* connect ind.   */

             netbuf is described in intro(3).  reason specifies the  reason
             for  the  disconnect through a protocol-dependent reason code,
             udata  identifies  any  user  data  that  was  sent  with  the
             disconnect,  and  sequence may identify an outstanding connect
             indication with which the disconnect is associated.   sequence
             is  only  meaningful  when  t_rcvdis  is  issued  by a passive
             transport  user  which  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.

            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 will be
            discarded.   However,  if  a  user has retrieved more than one
            outstanding connect indication (via t_listen)  and  discon  is
            NULL,  the  user  will  be  unable  to  identify which connect
            indication the disconnect is associated with.

         Return Values
            t_rcvdis 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.

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

            TBUFOVFLW The number of bytes (maxlen) allocated for incoming
                      data is greater than zero but 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.

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

             TPROTO    A communication problem has been detected with the
                       transport provider and there is no other value of
                       t_errno to describe the error condition.

          State Transitions
             t_rcvdis may be issued from any valid state except T_UNINIT,
             T_UNBND, or T_IDLE.  Valid states on exit are T_IDLE
             (successful) and T_INCON (successful but there are connect
             indications outstanding).
