t_rcvuderr() is used in connectionless mode to receive information concerning an error on a previously sent data unit, and should only be issued following a unit data error indication. It informs the transport user that a data unit with a specific destination address and protocol options produced an error. fd identifies the local transport endpoint through which the error report will be received, and uderr points to a t_uderr() structure defined in <nettli/tiuser.h> as:
struct t_uderr { struct netbuf addr; /* address */ struct netbuf opt; /* options */ long error; /* error code */ };
The maxlen, len, and buf members of the netbuf structure are described in t_accept.3n The maxlen field of addr and opt must be set before issuing this function to indicate the maximum size of the buffer for each.
On return from this call, the addr structure specifies the destination protocol address of the erroneous data unit, the opt structure identifies protocol-specific options that were associated with the data unit, and error specifies a protocol-dependent error code.
If the user does not care to identify the data unit that produced an error, uderr may be set to NULL and t_rcvuderr() will simply clear the error indication without reporting any information to the user.
t_rcvuderr() returns:
