.Os
|

.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm connect
|
|
.Nd initiate a connection on a socket
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/socket.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn connect "int s" "const struct sockaddr *name" "socklen_t namelen"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The parameter
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
is a socket.
|
|
If it is of type
|
|
.Dv SOCK_DGRAM ,
|
|
this call specifies the peer with which the socket is to be associated;
|
|
this address is that to which datagrams are to be sent,
|
|
and the only address from which datagrams are to be received.
|
|
If the socket is of type
|
|
.Dv SOCK_STREAM ,
|
|
this call attempts to make a connection to
|
|
another socket.
|
|
The other socket is specified by
|
|
.Fa name ,
|
|
which is an address in the communications space of the socket.
|
|
.Fa namelen
|
|
indicates the amount of space pointed to by
|
|
.Fa name ,
|
|
in bytes.
|
|
Each communications space interprets the
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
parameter in its own way.
|
|
Generally, stream sockets may successfully
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
only once; datagram sockets may use
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
multiple times to change their association.
|
|
Datagram sockets may dissolve the association
|
|
by connecting to an invalid address, such as a null address.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
call is interrupted by a signal, it will return with errno set to
|
|
.Er EINTR
|
|
and the connection attempt will proceed as if the socket was non-blocking.
|
|
Subsequent calls to
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
will set errno to
|
|
.Er EALREADY .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If the connection or binding succeeds, 0 is returned.
|
|
Otherwise a \-1 is returned, and a more specific error
|
|
code is stored in
|
|
.Va errno .
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
call fails if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
is not a valid descriptor.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTSOCK
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
is a descriptor for a file, not a socket.
|
|
.It Bq Er EADDRNOTAVAIL
|
|
The specified address is not available on this machine.
|
|
.It Bq Er EAFNOSUPPORT
|
|
Addresses in the specified address family cannot be used with this socket.
|
|
.It Bq Er EISCONN
|
|
The socket is already connected.
|
|
.It Bq Er ETIMEDOUT
|
|
Connection establishment timed out without establishing a connection.
|
|
.It Bq Er ECONNREFUSED
|
|
The attempt to connect was forcefully rejected.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENETUNREACH
|
|
The network isn't reachable from this host.
|
|
.It Bq Er EADDRINUSE
|
|
The address is already in use.
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
parameter specifies an area outside
|
|
the process address space.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINPROGRESS
|
|
The socket is non-blocking and the connection cannot be completed immediately.
|
|
It is possible to
|
|
.Xr select 2
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr poll 2
|
|
for completion by selecting or polling the socket for writing.
|
|
The success or failure of the connect operation may be determined by using
|
|
.Xr getsockopt 2
|
|
to read the socket error status with the
|
|
.Dv SO_ERROR
|
|
option at the
|
|
.Dv SOL_SOCKET
|
|
level.
|
|
The returned socket error status is zero on success, or one of the
|
|
error codes listed here on failure.
|
|
.It Bq Er EALREADY
|
|
Either the socket is non-blocking mode or a previous call to
|
|
.Fn connect
|
|
was interrupted by a signal, and the connection attempt has not yet
|
|
been completed.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINTR
|
|
The connection attempt was interrupted by a signal.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following errors are specific to connecting names in the
|
|
.Ux
|
|
domain.
|
|
These errors may not apply in future versions of the
|
|
.Ux
|
|
IPC domain.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENAMETOOLONG
|
|
A component of a pathname exceeded
|
|
.Brq Dv NAME_MAX
|
|
characters, or an entire path name exceeded
|
|
.Brq Dv PATH_MAX
|
|
characters.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOENT
|
|
The named socket does not exist.
|
|
.It Bq Er EACCES
|
|
Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix, or
|
|
write access to the named socket is denied.
|
|
.It Bq Er ELOOP
|
|
Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the pathname.
