NAME¶
rpc_localaddr - discover local endpoint address for an RPC clientSYNOPSIS¶
int
rpc_localaddr(struct rpc_clnt * clnt,
struct sockaddr * buf,
size_t buflen);
ARGUMENTS¶
clntRPC client structure
buf
target buffer
buflen
size of target buffer, in bytes
DESCRIPTION¶
Returns zero and fills in “buf” and “buflen” if successful; otherwise, a negative errno is returned. This works even if the underlying transport is not currently connected, or if the upper layer never previously provided a source address. The result of this function call is transient: multiple calls in succession may give different results, depending on how local networking configuration changes over time.COPYRIGHT¶
