GETSOCKNAME(2)          COMMAND REFERENCE          GETSOCKNAME(2)



NAME
     getsockname - get socket name

SYNOPSIS
     getsockname(s, name, namelen)
     int s;
     struct sockaddr *name;
     int *namelen;

DESCRIPTION
     Getsockname returns the current name for the specified
     socket.  The namelen parameter should be initialized to
     indicate the amount of space pointed to by name.  On return
     it contains the actual size of the name returned (in bytes).

DIAGNOSTICS
     The call succeeds unless:

     [EBADF]      The argument s is not a valid descriptor.

     [ENOTSOCK]   The argument s is a file, not a socket.

     [ENOBUFS]    Insufficient resources were available in the
                  system to perform the operation.

     [EFAULT]     The name parameter points to memory not in a
                  valid part of the process address space.

RETURN VALUE
     [0]  Getsockname was successful.

     [-1] Getsockname was unsuccessful.

CAVEATS
     Names bound to sockets in the UTek domain are inaccessible;
     getsockname returns a zero length name.

SEE ALSO
     bind(2) and socket(2).
