NAME

6       nbd_set_socket_activation_name - set the socket activation name
7

SYNOPSIS

9        #include <libnbd.h>
10
11        int nbd_set_socket_activation_name (
12              struct nbd_handle *h, const char *socket_name
13            );

DESCRIPTION

16       When running an NBD server using
17       nbd_connect_systemd_socket_activation(3) you can optionally name the
18       socket.  Call this function before connecting to the server.
19
20       Some servers such as qemu-storage-daemon(1) can use this information to
21       associate the socket with a name used on the command line, but most
22       servers will ignore it.  The name is passed through the
23       "LISTEN_FDNAMES" environment variable.
24
25       The parameter "socket_name" can be a short alphanumeric string.  If it
26       is set to the empty string (also the default when the handle is
27       created) then the name "unknown" will be seen by the server.
28

RETURN VALUE

30       If the call is successful the function returns 0.
31

ERRORS

33       On error -1 is returned.
34
35       Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details
36       of the error.
37
38       The following parameters must not be NULL: "h", "socket_name".  For
39       more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
40

HANDLE STATE

42       The handle must be newly created, otherwise this call will return an
43       error.
44

VERSION

46       This function first appeared in libnbd 1.16.

48       If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check
49       if the following macro is defined:
50
51        #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_SET_SOCKET_ACTIVATION_NAME 1
