.SH "ARGUMENTS"

.RS 4
RPC client structure
.RE

target buffer

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Returns zero and fills in
\(lqbuf\(rq
and
\(lqbuflen\(rq
if successful; otherwise, a negative errno is returned\&.
.PP
This works even if the underlying transport is not currently connected, or if the upper layer never previously provided a source address\&.
.PP
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\&.
