.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
18 |
.LP
|
|
19 |
The \fIgetsockname\fP() function shall retrieve the locally-bound |
|
20 |
name of the specified socket, store this address in the |
|
21 |
\fBsockaddr\fP structure pointed to by the \fIaddress\fP argument, |
|
22 |
and store the length of this address in the object pointed to |
|
23 |
by the \fIaddress_len\fP argument. |
|
24 |
.LP
|
|
25 |
If the actual length of the address is greater than the length of |
|
26 |
the supplied \fBsockaddr\fP structure, the stored address |
|
27 |
shall be truncated. |
|
28 |
.LP
|
|
29 |
If the socket has not been bound to a local name, the value stored |
|
30 |
in the object pointed to by \fIaddress\fP is |
|
31 |
unspecified. |
|
32 |
.SH RETURN VALUE |
|
33 |
.LP
|
|
34 |
Upon successful completion, 0 shall be returned, the \fIaddress\fP |
|
35 |
argument shall point to the address of the socket, and the |
|
36 |
\fIaddress_len\fP argument shall point to the length of the address. |
|
37 |
Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and \fIerrno\fP set to |
|
38 |
indicate the error. |
|
39 |
.SH ERRORS |
|
40 |
.LP
|
|
41 |
The \fIgetsockname\fP() function shall fail if: |
|
42 |
.TP 7 |
|
43 |
.B EBADF |
|
44 |
The \fIsocket\fP argument is not a valid file descriptor. |
|
45 |
.TP 7 |
|
46 |
.B ENOTSOCK |
|
47 |
The \fIsocket\fP argument does not refer to a socket. |
|
48 |
.TP 7 |
|
49 |
.B EOPNOTSUPP |
|
50 |
The operation is not supported for this socket's protocol. |

The \fIgetsockname\fP() function may fail if: |
|
54 |
.TP 7 |
|
55 |
.B EINVAL |
|
56 |
The socket has been shut down. |
|
57 |
.TP 7 |
|
