explain_accept_or_die(3)    Library Functions Manual	explain_accept_or_die(3)

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

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/accept.h>
     int explain_accept_or_die(int fildes, struct sockaddr *sock_addr, socklen_t
     *sock_addr_size);

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

     This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the  following
     example:
	    int fd = explain_accept_or_die(fildes, sock_addr, sock_addr_size);

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

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

     sock_addr_size
	     The sock_addr_size, exactly as to be passed to the accept(2) system
	     call.

     Returns:
	     This function only returns on success, see accept(2) for  more  in-
	     formation.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
