setsockopt
and getsockopt
.Structs
Socket address for the Linux kernel crypto API
Request for multicast socket operations
Ipv4AddrDeprecated
Ipv6AddrDeprecated
Request for ipv6 multicast socket operations
Hardware Address
Flags for send/recv and their relatives
Address for the Linux kernel user interface device.
Additional socket options
An IPv4 socket address
An IPv6 socket address
Configuration flags for
SO_TIMESTAMPING
interfaceFor representing packet timestamps via
SO_TIMESTAMPING
interfaceA 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
and socketpair
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
.InetAddrDeprecated
IpAddrDeprecated
SockAddrDeprecated
Represents a socket address
Constants used in
socket
and socketpair
to specify the protocol to use.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. This has
performance benefits for some applications.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_addrDeprecated
Return the appropriate
SockAddr
type from a sockaddr_storage
of a
certain size.Create an endpoint for communication
Create a pair of connected sockets
