explain_accept4_or_die(3)   Library Functions Manual   explain_accept4_or_die(3)

NAME
     explain_accept4_or_die - accept a connection on a socket and report errors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/accept4.h>
     int   explain_accept4_or_die(int	fildes,   struct   sockaddr  *sock_addr,
     socklen_t *sock_addr_size, int flags);
     int  explain_accept4_on_error(int	fildes,  struct   sockaddr   *sock_addr,
     socklen_t *sock_addr_size, int flags);

DESCRIPTION
     The  explain_accept4_or_die  function is used to call the accept4(2) system
     call. On failure an explanation will be printed to  stderr,  obtained  from
     the explain_accept4(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling
     exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

     The explain_accept4_on_error function is used to call the accept4(2) system
     call.  On	failure  an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from
     the explain_accept4(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

     fildes  The fildes, exactly as to be passed to the accept4(2) system call.

     sock_addr
	     The sock_addr, exactly as to be passed  to  the  accept4(2)  system
	     call.

     sock_addr_size
	     The  sock_addr_size, exactly as to be passed to the accept4(2) sys-
	     tem call.

     flags   The flags, exactly as to be passed to the accept4(2) system call.

RETURN VALUE
     The explain_accept4_or_die function only returns on success, see accept4(2)
     for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it  does
     not return.

     The  explain_accept4_on_error  function  always returns the value return by
     the wrapped accept4(2) system call.

EXAMPLE
     The explain_accept4_or_die function is intended to be  used  in  a  fashion
     similar to the following example:
	    int result = explain_accept4_or_die(fildes, sock_addr, sock_addr_size, flags);

SEE ALSO
     accept4(2)
	     accept a connection on a socket

     explain_accept4(3)
	     explain accept4(2) errors
