NAMEsockatmark − determine whether socket is at out-of-band mark

LIBRARYStandard C library (libc, −lc)

SYNOPSIS#include <sys/socket.h>int sockatmark(int sockfd);Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): sockatmark(): _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L

DESCRIPTIONsockatmark() returns a value indicating whether or not the socket referred to by the file descriptor sockfd is at the out-of-band mark. If the socket is at the mark, then 1 is returned; if the socket is not at the mark, 0 is returned. This function does not remove the out-of-band mark.

RETURN VALUEA successful call to sockatmark() returns 1 if the socket is at the out-of-band mark, or 0 if it is not. On error, −1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORSEBADF  sockfd is not a valid file descriptor. EINVAL   sockfd is not a file descriptor to which sockatmark() can be applied.

VERSIONSsockatmark() was added in glibc 2.2.4.

ATTRIBUTESFor an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7). InterfaceAttributeValue sockatmark() Thread safetyMT-Safe

STANDARDSPOSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

NOTESIf sockatmark() returns 1, then the out-of-band data can be read using the MSG_OOB flag of recv(2). Out-of-band data is supported only on some stream socket protocols. sockatmark() can safely be called from a handler for the SIGURG signal. sockatmark() is implemented using the SIOCATMARK ioctl(2) operation.

BUGSPrior to glibc 2.4, sockatmark() did not work.

EXAMPLESThe following code can be used after receipt of a SIGURG signal to read (and discard) all data up to the mark, and then read the byte of data at the mark: char buf[BUF_LEN]; char oobdata; int atmark, s; for (;;) { atmark = sockatmark(sockfd); if (atmark == −1) { perror("sockatmark"); break; } if (atmark) break; s = read(sockfd, buf, BUF_LEN); if (s == −1) perror("read"); if (s <= 0) break; } if (atmark == 1) { if (recv(sockfd, &oobdata, 1, MSG_OOB) == −1) { perror("recv"); ... } }
