Function Documentation

◆ net_Accept()

int net_Accept ( vlc_object_t obj,
int *  fds 
)

Accepts an new connection on a set of listening sockets.

If there are no pending connections, this function will wait.

Note
If the thread needs to handle events other than incoming connections, you need to use poll() and net_AcceptSingle() instead.
Deprecated:
This function exists for backward compatibility. Use vlc_accept() or vlc_accept_i11e() in new code.
Parameters
objVLC object for logging and object kill signal
fdslistening socket set
Returns
-1 on error (may be transient error due to network issues), a new socket descriptor on success.

)

◆ net_Read()

ssize_t net_Read ( vlc_object_t p_this,
int  fd,
void *  p_data,
size_t  i_data 
)

Reads data from a socket.

This blocks until all requested data is received or the end of the stream is reached.

This function is a cancellation point.

Returns
-1 on error, or the number of bytes of read.

◆ net_SetCSCov()

int net_SetCSCov ( int  fd,
int  sendcov,
int  recvcov 
)

net_SetCSCov: Sets the send and receive checksum coverage of a socket:

Parameters
fdsocket
sendcovpayload coverage of sent packets (bytes), -1 for full
recvcovminimum payload coverage of received packets, -1 for full

)

◆ net_Write()

ssize_t net_Write ( vlc_object_t p_this,
int  fd,
const void *  p_data,
size_t  i_data 
)

Writes data to a socket.

This blocks until all data is written or an error occurs.

This function is a cancellation point.

Returns
the total number of bytes written, or -1 if an error occurs before any data is written.

References pollfd::fd, msg_Err, vlc_killed(), vlc_send_i11e(), vlc_strerror_c(), and vlc_testcancel().

◆ vlc_accept()

int vlc_accept ( int  lfd,
struct sockaddr *  addr,
socklen_t *  alen,
bool  nonblock 
)

Accepts an inbound connection request on a listening socket.

This function creates a connected socket from a listening socket, much like the standard accept() function. However, the new file descriptor has the close-on-exec flag set atomically. See also vlc_socket().

Parameters
lfdlistening socket file descriptor
addrpointer to the peer address or NULL [OUT]
alenpointer to the length of the peer address or NULL [OUT]
nonblockwhether to put the new socket in non-blocking mode
Returns
a new file descriptor or -1 on error

References vlc_socket_setup().

Referenced by httpdLoop(), net_Accept(), and vlc_accept_i11e().

◆ vlc_close()

int vlc_close ( int  fd)

Closes a file descriptor.

This closes a file descriptor. If this is a last file descriptor for the underlying open file, the file is closed too; the exact semantics depend on the type of file.

Note
The file descriptor is always closed when the function returns, even if the function returns an error. The sole exception is if the file descriptor was not currently valid, and thus cannot be closed (errno will then be set to EBADF).
Parameters
fdfile descriptor
Returns
Normally, zero is returned. If an I/O error is detected before or while closing, the function may return -1. Such an error is unrecoverable since the descriptor is closed.

A nul return value does not necessarily imply that all pending I/O succeeded, since I/O might still occur asynchronously afterwards.

◆ vlc_send()

ssize_t vlc_send ( int  fd,
const void *  buf,
size_t  buflen,
int  flags 
)

Sends data.

Like send(), this function sends raw data to the peer of a connection-mode socket, or to the predefined peer of a connection-less socket. Unlike send(), this function never triggers a signal; if the peer hung up, it returns an error.

Parameters
fdsocket to send data through
bufstart address of data
buflenbyte size of data
flagssocket send flags (see send() documentation)
Returns
number of bytes actually sent, or -1 on error (errno is set)

References vlc_sendto().

◆ vlc_sendmsg()

ssize_t vlc_sendmsg ( int  fd,
const struct msghdr *  msg,
int  flags 
)

Sends a socket message.

Like sendmsg(), this function sends a message through a socket. Unlike sendmsg(), this function never triggers a signal; if the peer hung up, it returns an error.

Parameters
fdsocket to send data through
msgmessage to send (see sendmsg() documentation)
flagssocket send flags (see sendmsg() documentation)
Returns
number of bytes actually sent, or -1 on error (errno is set)

References MSG_NOSIGNAL, and sendmsg().

Referenced by vlc_datagram_Send(), vlc_sendmsg_i11e(), vlc_sendto(), vlc_tls_ConnectWrite(), and vlc_tls_SocketWrite().

◆ vlc_sendto()

ssize_t vlc_sendto ( int  fd,
const void *  buf,
size_t  buflen,
int  flags,
const struct sockaddr *  dst,
socklen_t  dstlen 
)

Sends data to a peer.

This function operates like sendto() with the exception that it never triggers a signal.

This function mainly exists for the sakes of completeness and consistency:

  • To send data on a connection-mode socket, using vlc_send() is simpler.
  • To send data on a connection-less socket, sendto() and/or send() can be used directly.
Parameters
fdsocket to send data through
bufstart address of data
buflenbyte size of data
flagssocket send flags (see send() documentation)
dstdestination address (ignored for connection-mode sockets)
dstlenbyte size of destination address
Returns
number of bytes actually sent, or -1 on error (errno is set)

◆ vlc_socket()

int vlc_socket ( int  pf,
int  type,
int  proto,
bool  nonblock 
)

Creates a socket file descriptor.

This function creates a socket, similar to the standard socket() function. However, the new file descriptor has the close-on-exec flag set atomically, so as to avoid leaking the descriptor to child processes.

The non-blocking flag can also optionally be set.

Parameters
pfprotocol family
typesocket type
protonetwork protocol
nonblocktrue to create a non-blocking socket
Returns
a new file descriptor or -1 on error

References vlc_socket_setup().

Referenced by net_Socket(), and vlc_tls_SocketAddrInfo().

◆ vlc_socketpair()

int vlc_socketpair ( int  pf,
int  type,
int  proto,
int  fds[2],
bool  nonblock 
)

Creates a pair of socket file descriptors.

This function creates a pair of sockets that are mutually connected, much like the standard socketpair() function. However, the new file descriptors have the close-on-exec flag set atomically. See also vlc_socket().

Parameters
pfprotocol family
typesocket type
protonetwork protocol
fdsthe output array storing the file descriptor pair
nonblocktrue to create non-blocking sockets
Return values
0on success
-1on failure
