6 nbd_connect_socket - connect directly to a connected socket
7
9 #include <libnbd.h>
10
11 int nbd_connect_socket (struct nbd_handle *h, int sock);
12
14 Pass a connected socket (file descriptor) which libnbd will talk to.
15 The program is responsible for connecting this somehow to an NBD
16 server. Once the socket is passed to libnbd it is the responsibility
17 of libnbd. Libnbd may read and write to it, set it to non-blocking,
18 etc., and will finally close it when the handle is closed. The program
19 must no longer use the socket.
20
22 If the call is successful the function returns 0.
23
25 On error "-1" is returned.
26
27 Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details
28 of the error.
29
31 The handle must be newly created, otherwise this call will return an
32 error.
33
35 This function first appeared in libnbd 1.2.
36
37 If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check
38 if the following macro is defined:
39
40 #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_CONNECT_SOCKET 1
41
43 nbd_create(3), libnbd(3).
