 Name

    t_getinfo - get protocol-specific service information

 Syntax


    TLI syntax


    cc . . . -lnsls


    #include <sys/tiuser.h>

    int t_getinfo (fd, info)
    int fd;
    struct t_info *info;


    XTI syntax


    cc . . . -lxti


    #include <xti.h>

    int t_getinfo (fd, info)
    int fd;
    struct t_info *info;


 Description

    This function returns the current characteristics of the underlying
    transport protocol associated with file descriptor fd.  The info struc-
    ture is used to return the same information returned by topen.  This
    function enables a transport user to access this information during any
    phase of communication.

    This argument points to the t_info(FP) structure.

    On failure, terrno may be set to one of the following:

    [TBADF]        The specified file descriptor does not refer to a trans-
                   port endpoint.

    [TSYSERR]      A system error has occurred during execution of this func-
                   tion.  When this error code is set, errno is also set to
                   EIO.

 Diagnostics

    The tgetinfo function returns 0 on success and -1 on failure, and
    terrno is set to indicate the error.
