.TH CONNLD 7M "May 3, 2004"
.SH NAME
connld \- line discipline for unique stream connections
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fB#include </sys/steam.h>\fR
.fi
.LP
.nf
\fBint ioctl(\fIfd\fR,I_PUSH,"connld");\fR
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
\fBconnld\fR is a STREAMS-based module that provides unique connections between
server and client processes. It can only be pushed (see \fBstreamio\fR(7I))
onto one end of a STREAMS-based pipe that may subsequently be attached to a
name in the file system name space with \fBfattach\fR(3C). After the pipe end
is attached, a new pipe is created internally when an originating process
attempts to \fBopen\fR(2) or \fBcreat\fR(2) the file system name. A file
descriptor for one end of the new pipe is packaged into a message identical to
that for the ioctl \fBI_SENDFD\fR (see \fBstreamio\fR(7I)) and is transmitted
along the stream to the server process on the other end. The originating
process is blocked until the server responds.
.sp
.LP
The server responds to the \fBI_SENDFD\fR request by accepting the file
descriptor through the \fBI_RECVFD\fR ioctl message. When this happens, the
file descriptor associated with the other end of the new pipe is transmitted to
the originating process as the file descriptor returned from \fBopen\fR(2) or
\fBcreat\fR(2).
.sp
.LP
If the server does not respond to the \fBI_SENDFD\fR request, the stream that
the \fBconnld\fR module is pushed on becomes uni-directional because the server
will not be able to retrieve any data off the stream until the \fBI_RECVFD\fR
request is issued. If the server process exits before issuing the
\fBI_RECVFD\fR request, the \fBopen\fR(2) or the \fBcreat\fR(2) invocation will
fail and return -1 to the originating process.
.sp
.LP
When the \fBconnld\fR module is pushed onto a pipe, it ignores messages going
back and forth through the pipe.
.SH ERRORS
.sp
.LP
On success, an open of \fBconnld\fR returns 0. On failure, \fBerrno\fR is set
to the following values:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBEINVAL\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
A stream onto which \fBconnld\fR is being pushed is not a pipe or the pipe does
not have a write queue pointer pointing to a stream head read queue.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBEINVAL\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
The other end of the pipe onto which \fBconnld\fR is being pushed is linked
under a multiplexor.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBEPIPE\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
\fBconnld\fR is being pushed onto a pipe end whose other end is no longer
there.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBENOMEM\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
An internal pipe could not be created.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBENXIO\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
An \fBM_HANGUP\fR message is at the stream head of the pipe onto which
\fBconnld\fR is being pushed.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBEAGAIN\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
Internal data structures could not be allocated.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBENFILE\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 11n
A file table entry could not be allocated.
