getsockname — get socket name
#include <sys/socket.h>
int
getsockname( |
int | s, |
| struct sockaddr * | name, | |
| socklen_t * | namelen); |
getsockname() returns the
current name for the
specified socket. The namelen parameter should be
initialized to indicate the amount of space pointed to by
name. On return it
contains the actual size of the name returned (in bytes).
On success, zero is returned. On error, −1 is
returned, and errno is set
appropriately.
The argument s is not a valid
descriptor.
The name
parameter points to memory not in a valid part of the
process address space.
namelen is
invalid (e.g., is negative).
Insufficient resources were available in the system to perform the operation.
The argument s is a file, not a
socket.
The third argument of getsockname() is in reality an int * (and this is what 4.x BSD
and libc4 and libc5 have). Some POSIX confusion resulted in
the present socklen_t, also used by
glibc. See also accept(2).
