sockopt

Structs

CmsgIterator
CmsgSpace

A structure used to make room in a cmsghdr passed to recvmsg. The size and alignment match that of a cmsghdr followed by a T, but the fields are not accessible, as the actual types will change on a call to recvmsg.

Ipv4Addr
Ipv6Addr
MsgFlags
RecvMsg
SockFlag
UnixAddr

A wrapper around sockaddr_un. We track the length of sun_path, because it may not be null-terminated (unconnected and abstract sockets). Note that the actual sockaddr length is greater by size_of::<sa_family_t>().

in6_addr
in_addr
ip_mreq
ipv6_mreq
linger

sockaddr_in
sockaddr_in6

Enums

AddressFamily
ControlMessage

A type-safe wrapper around a single control message. More types may be added to this enum; do not exhaustively pattern-match it. Further reading

InetAddr
IpAddr
Shutdown
SockAddr

Represents a socket address

SockLevel

The protocol level at which to get / set socket options. Used as an argument to getsockopt and setsockopt.

Traits

GetSockOpt

Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument to getsockopt

SetSockOpt

Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument to setsockopt

Functions

accept

Accept a connection on a socket

accept4

Accept a connection on a socket

bind

Bind a name to a socket

connect

Initiate a connection on a socket

getpeername

Get the address of the peer connected to the socket fd.

getsockname

Get the current address to which the socket fd is bound.

getsockopt

Get the current value for the requested socket option

listen

Listen for connections on a socket

recv

Receive data from a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read

recvfrom

Receive data from a connectionless or connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read and the socket address of the sender.

recvmsg

Receive message in scatter-gather vectors from a socket, and optionally receive ancillary data into the provided buffer. If no ancillary data is desired, use () as the type parameter.

send

Send data to a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read

sendmsg

Send data in scatter-gather vectors to a socket, possibly accompanied by ancillary data. Optionally direct the message at the given address, as with sendto.

sendto
setsockopt

Sets the value for the requested socket option

shutdown

Shut down part of a full-duplex connection.

sockaddr_storage_to_addr
socket

Create an endpoint for communication

socketpair

Create a pair of connected sockets
