POPIS / INSTRUKCE

The recvmsg() function shall receive a message from a connection-mode or connectionless-mode socket. It is normally used with connectionless-mode sockets because it permits the application to retrieve the source address of received data. The recvmsg() function takes the following arguments:

socket

Specifies the socket file descriptor.

message

Points to a msghdr structure, containing both the buffer to store the source address and the buffers for the incoming message. The length and format of the address depend on the address family of the socket. The msg_flags member is ignored on input, but may contain meaningful values on output.

flags

Specifies the type of message reception. Values of this argument are formed by logically OR'ing zero or more of the following values:

MSG_OOB

MSG_PEEK

MSG_WAITALL

The recvmsg() function shall receive messages from unconnected or connected sockets and shall return the length of the message. The recvmsg() function shall return the total length of the message. For message-based sockets, such as SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET, the entire message shall be read in a single operation. If a message is too long to fit in the supplied buffers, and MSG_PEEK is not set in the flags argument, the excess bytes shall be discarded, and MSG_TRUNC shall be set in the msg_flags member of the msghdr structure. For stream-based sockets, such as SOCK_STREAM, message boundaries shall be ignored. In this case, data shall be returned to the user as soon as it becomes available, and no data shall be discarded. If the MSG_WAITALL flag is not set, data shall be returned only up to the end of the first message. If no messages are available at the socket and O_NONBLOCK is not set on the socket's file descriptor, recvmsg() shall block until a message arrives. If no messages are available at the socket and O_NONBLOCK is set on the socket's file descriptor, the recvmsg() function shall fail and set errno to [EAGAIN] or [EWOULDBLOCK]. In the msghdr structure, the msg_name and msg_namelen members specify the source address if the socket is unconnected. If the socket is connected, the msg_name and msg_namelen members shall be ignored. The msg_name member may be a null pointer if no names are desired or required. The msg_iov and msg_iovlen fields are used to specify where the received data shall be stored. msg_iov points to an array of iovec structures; msg_iovlen shall be set to the dimension of this array. In each iovec structure, the iov_base field specifies a storage area and the iov_len field gives its size in bytes. Each storage area indicated by msg_iov is filled with received data in turn until all of the received data is stored or all of the areas have been filled. Upon successful completion, the msg_flags member of the message header shall be the bitwise-inclusive OR of all of the following flags that indicate conditions detected for the received message:

MSG_EOR

End-of-record was received (if supported by the protocol).

MSG_OOB

Out-of-band data was received.

MSG_TRUNC

Normal data was truncated.

MSG_CTRUNC

Control data was truncated.

 

NÁVRATOVÁ HODNOTA

Upon successful completion, recvmsg() shall return the length of the message in bytes. If no messages are available to be received and the peer has performed an orderly shutdown, recvmsg() shall return 0. Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno set to indicate the error.

CHYBY / ERRORY

The recvmsg() function shall fail if:

EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK

 

The socket's file descriptor is marked O_NONBLOCK and no data is waiting to be received; or MSG_OOB is set and no out-of-band data is available and either the socket's file descriptor is marked O_NONBLOCK or the socket does not support blocking to await out-of-band data.

EBADF

The socket argument is not a valid open file descriptor.

ECONNRESET

A connection was forcibly closed by a peer.

EINTR

This function was interrupted by a signal before any data was available.

EINVAL

The sum of the iov_len values overflows a ssize_t, or the MSG_OOB flag is set and no out-of-band data is available.

EMSGSIZE

The msg_iovlen member of the msghdr structure pointed to by message is less than or equal to 0, or is greater than {IOV_MAX}.

ENOTCONN

A receive is attempted on a connection-mode socket that is not connected.

ENOTSOCK

The socket argument does not refer to a socket.

EOPNOTSUPP

The specified flags are not supported for this socket type.

ETIMEDOUT

The connection timed out during connection establishment, or due to a transmission timeout on active connection.

 

The recvmsg() function may fail if:

EIO

An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system.

ENOBUFS

Insufficient resources were available in the system to perform the operation.

ENOMEM

Insufficient memory was available to fulfill the request.

APPLICATION USAGE

RATIONALE

None.
