These routines allow C programs to make procedure calls on other machines across the network. First, the client calls a procedure to send a data packet to the server. Upon receipt of the packet, the server calls a dispatch routine to perform the requested service, and then sends back a reply. Finally, the procedure call returns to the client. Unless otherwise indicated, the routines described in this reference page are thread safe (that is, they can be used safely in a multi- threaded environment). Routines that are not thread safe are flagged as such. [Not Thread Safe] A macro that destroys the RPC service transport handle, xprt. Destruction usually involves deallocation of private data structures, including xprt itself. Use of xprt is undefined after calling this routine. A global variable that reflects the RPC service side's read file descriptor bit mask; it is suitable as a parameter to the select system call. This is only of interest if a service implementor does not call svc_run(), but rather does his own asynchronous event processing. This variable is read-only (do not pass its address to select), yet it may change after calls to svc_getreqset() or any creation routines. Similar to svc_fdset(), but limited to 32 descriptors. This interface is obsoleted by svc_fdset(). [Not Thread Safe] A macro that frees any data allocated by the RPC/XDR system when it decoded the arguments to a service procedure using svc_getargs(). This routine returns 1 if the results were successfully freed, and zero (0) otherwise. [Not Thread Safe] A macro that decodes the arguments of an RPC request associated with the RPC service transport handle, xprt. The in parameter is the address where the arguments will be placed; inproc is the XDR routine used to decode the arguments. This routine returns one (1) if decoding succeeds, and zero (0) otherwise. [Not Thread Safe] The approved way of getting the network address of the caller of a procedure associated with the RPC service transport handle, xprt. [Not Thread Safe] Similar to svc_getre- qset(), but limited to 32 descriptors. This interface is obsoleted by svc_getreqset(). [Not Thread Safe] This routine is only of inter- est if a service implementor does not call svc_run(), but instead implements custom asynchronous event processing. It is called when the select system call has determined that an RPC request has arrived on some RPC socket(s); rdfds is the resultant read file descriptor bit mask. The routine returns when all sockets associated with the value of rdfds have been serviced. [Not Thread Safe] Associates prognum and versnum with the service dispatch procedure, dispatch. If protocol is zero, the service is not registered with the portmap service. If protocol is non-zero, a mapping of the triple [prognum, versnum, protocol] to xprt->xp_port is established with the local portmap ser- vice (generally protocol is zero, IPPROTO_UDP or IPPROTO_TCP). The dispatch procedure has the following form: dispatch( struct svc_req *request, SVCXPRT *xprt); The svc_register() routine returns one (1) if it succeeds, and zero (0) otherwise. [Not Thread Safe] This routine waits for RPC requests to arrive, and calls the appropriate service procedure using svc_getreq() when one arrives. This procedure is usually waiting for a select() system call to return. [Not Thread Safe] Called by an RPC service's dispatch routine to send the results of a remote procedure call. The xprt parameter is the request's associated transport handle; outproc is the XDR routine which is used to encode the results; and out is the address of the results. This routine returns one (1) if it succeeds, zero (0) otherwise. [Not Thread Safe] Removes all mapping of the double [prognum,versnum] to dispatch routines, and of the triple [prognum,versnum,*] to port number. [Not Thread Safe] Called by a service dispatch routine that refuses to perform a remote procedure call due to an authentication error. [Not Thread Safe] Called by a service dispatch routine that cannot successfully decode its parameters. See also svc_getargs(). [Not Thread Safe] Called by a service dispatch routine that does not implement the procedure number that the caller requests. [Not Thread Safe] Called when the desired program is not registered with the RPC package. Service implementors usually do not need this routine. [Not Thread Safe] Called when the desired version of a program is not registered with the RPC package. Service implementors usually do not need this routine. [Not Thread Safe] Called by a service dispatch routine when it detects a system error not covered by any particular protocol. For example, if a service can no longer allocate storage, it may call this routine. [Not Thread Safe] Called by a service dispatch routine that refuses to perform a remote procedure call due to insufficient (but correct) authentication parameters. The routine calls svcerr_auth(xprt, AUTH_TOOWEAK). [Not Thread Safe] Cre- ates a service on top of any open descriptor. Typically, this descriptor is a connected socket for a stream protocol such as TCP. The sendsize and recvsize parameters indicate sizes for the send and receive buffers. If they are zero (0), a reasonable default is chosen. [Not Thread Safe] Creates a toy RPC service transport, to which it returns a pointer. The transport is really a buffer within the process's address space, so the corresponding RPC client should live in the same address space; see clntraw_create(). This routine allows simulation of RPC and acquisition of RPC overheads (such as round trip times), without any kernel interference. This routine returns NULL if it fails. [Not Thread Safe] Creates a TCP/IP-based RPC service transport, to which it returns a pointer. The transport is associated with the sock socket, which may be RPC_ANYSOCK, in which case a new socket is created. If the socket is not bound to a local TCP port, this routine binds it to an arbitrary port. Upon completion, xprt->xp_sock is the trans- port's socket descriptor, and xprt->xp_port is the transport's port number. This routine returns NULL if it fails. Since TCP-based RPC uses buffered I/O , users may specify the size of buffers; values of zero (0) choose suitable defaults. [Not Thread Safe] Cre- ates a UDP/IP-based RPC service transport, to which it returns a pointer. The transport is associated with the sock socket, which may be RPC_ANYSOCK, in which case a new socket is created. If the socket is not bound to a local UDP port, then this routine binds it to an arbitrary port. Upon completion, xprt->xp_sock is the transport's socket descriptor, and xprt->xp_port is the transport's port number. This routine returns NULL if it fails. Warning: Since UDP-based RPC messages can only hold up to 8 Kbytes of encoded data, this transport cannot be used for procedures that take large arguments or return huge results. RELATED INFORMATION
