   NAME
         t_getstate - get the current state

   SYNOPSIS
         #include <tiuser.h>

         int t_getstate(fd)
         int fd;

   DESCRIPTION
         The t_getstate function returns the current state of the provider
         associated with the transport endpoint specified by fd.

         On failure, t_errno may be set to one of the following:

         [TBADF]           The specified file descriptor does not refer to a
                           transport endpoint.

         [TSTATECHNG]      The transport provider is undergoing a state
                           change.

         [TSYSERR]         A system error has occurred during execution of
                           this function.

   DIAGNOSTICS
         t_getstate returns the current state on successful completion and -1
         on failure and t_errno is set to indicate the error.  The current
         state may be one of the following:

         T_UNBND        unbound

         T_IDLE         idle

         T_OUTCON       outgoing connection pending

         T_INCON        incoming connection pending

         T_DATAXFER     data transfer

         T_OUTREL       outgoing orderly release (waiting for an orderly
                        release indication)

         T_INREL        incoming orderly release (waiting for an orderly
                        release request)

         If the provider is undergoing a state transition when t_getstate is
         called, the function will fail.
