NAME

       sctp_recvmsg - Receive a message from a SCTP socket.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/socket.h>
       #include <netinet/sctp.h>

       int sctp_recvmsg(int sd, void * msg, size_t len,
			struct sockaddr * from, socklen_t * fromlen,
			struct sctp_sndrcvinfo * sinfo, int * msg_flags);

DESCRIPTION

       sctp_recvmsg  is  a wrapper library function that can be used to receive a message from a socket while using the advanced features of SCTP.
       sd is the socket descriptor on which the message pointed to by msg of length len is received.

       If from is not NULL, the source address of the message is filled in. The argument fromlen is a value-result parameter. initialized  to  the
       size of the buffer associated with from , and modified on return to indicate the actual size of the address stored.

       sinfo  is  a  pointer to a sctp_sndrcvinfo structure to be filled upon receipt of the message.  msg_flags is a pointer to a integer that is
       filled with any message flags like MSG_NOTIFICATION or MSG_EOR.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, sctp_recvmsg returns the number of bytes received or -1 if an error occurred.

NAME

       sctp_send - Send a message from a SCTP socket.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/socket.h>
       #include <netinet/sctp.h>

       int sctp_send(int sd, const void * msg, size_t len,
			const struct sctp_sndrcvinfo *sinfo,
			uint32_t flags);

DESCRIPTION

       sctp_send is a wrapper library function that can be used to send a message from a socket without the use of the CMSG header structures.	sd
       is the socket descriptor from which the message pointed to by msg of length len is sent.  sinfo is a pointer to	a  sctp_sndrcvinfo  struc-
       ture.  flags parameter is composed of a bitwise OR of the flags that can be be passed as the 3rd argument of a standard sendmsg() call.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, sctp_sendmsg returns the number of bytes sent or -1 if an error occurred.
