NAME
sctp_send - send message from an SCTP socket SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsocket -lnsl -lsctp [ library... ] #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/sctp.h> ssize_t sctp_send(int s, const void *msg, size_t *len, const struct sctp_sndrcvinfo *sinfo, int flags); DESCRIPTION
The sctp_send() function sends messages from one-to-one and one-to-many style SCTP endpoints. The following parameters can be set: s Socket created by socket(3SOCKET) msg Message to be sent len Size of the message to be sent in bytes The caller completes the sinfo parameter with values used to send a message. Such values might include the stream number, payload protocol identifier, time to live, and the SCTP message flag and context. For a one-to-many socket, the association ID can be specified in the sinfo parameter to send a message to the association represented in the ID. Flags supported for sctp_send() are reserved for future use. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the sctp_send() function returns the number of bytes sent. The function returns -1 if an error occurs. ERRORS
The sctp_send() function fails under the following conditions. EBADF The s argument is an invalid file descriptor. ENOTSOCK The s argument is not a socket. EOPNOTSUPP MSG_ABORT or MSG_EOF is set in the sinfo_flags field of sinfo for a one-to-one style SCTP socket. EPIPE The socket is shutting down and no more writes are allowed. EAGAIN The socket is non-blocking and the transmit queue is full. ENOTCONN There is no established association. EINVAL Control message length is incorrect. EINVAL Specified destination address does not belong to the association. EINVAL The stream_no is outside the number of outbound streams supported by the association. EAFNOSUPPORT Address family of the specified destination address is other than AF_INET or AF_INET6. ATTRIBUTES

sctp_getpaddrs(3SOCKET) 				     Sockets Library Functions					   sctp_getpaddrs(3SOCKET)

NAME
sctp_getpaddrs, sctp_freepaddrs - returns all peer addresses on an SCTP association SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsocket -lnsl -lsctp [ library... ] #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/sctp.h> int sctp_getpaddrs(int sock, sctp_assoc_t id, void **addrs, void sctp_freepaddrs(void *addrs); DESCRIPTION
The sctp_getpaddrs() queries the peer addresses in an SCTP association. The sctp_freepaddrs() function releases resources that are allo- cated to hold the addresses. The sctp_getpaddrs() function returns all the peer addresses in the SCTP association identified by sock. On completion addrs points to a dynamically allocated array of sockaddr_in structures for an Internet Protocol (IPv4) socket or an array of sockaddr_in6 structures for an Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) socket. The addrs parameter must not be NULL. For an IPv4 SCTP socket, the addresses returned in the sockaddr_in structures are IPv4 addresses. For an IPv6 SCTP socket, the addresses in the sockaddr_in6 structures can be IPv6 addresses or IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. If sock is a one-to-many style SCTP socket, id specifies the association of interest. If sock is a one-to-one style SCTP socket, id is ignored. The sctp_freepaddrs() function frees the resources allocated by sctp_getpaddrs(). The addrs parameter is the array of addresses allocated by sctp_getpaddrs(). RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the sctp_getpaddrs() function returns the number of addresses in the addrs array. Otherwise, the function returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the error. ERRORS
The sctp_getpaddrs() succeeds unless one of the following conditions exist. EBADF The sock argument is an invalid file descriptor. ENOTSOCK The sock argument is not a socket. EINVAL The addrs argument is NULL. EINVAL The id argument is an invalid association identifier for a one-to-many style STP socket. ENOTCONN The specified socket is not connected. ATTRIBUTES
