DESCRIPTION
These routines are part of the RPC library which allows C language programs to make proce-
dure calls on servers across the network. These routines deal with the creation of service
handles. Once the handle is created, the server can be invoked by calling svc_run().
Routines
See rpc(3) for the definition of the SVCXPRT data structure.
svc_control()
A function to change or retrieve various information about a service object. The req
argument indicates the type of operation and info is a pointer to the information.
The supported values of req, their argument types, and what they do are:
SVCGET_VERSQUIET
If a request is received for a program number served by this server but
the version number is outside the range registered with the server, an
RPC_PROGVERSMISMATCH error will normally be returned. The info argument
should be a pointer to an integer. Upon successful completion of the
SVCGET_VERSQUIET request, *info contains an integer which describes the
server's current behavior: 0 indicates normal server behavior (that is,
an RPC_PROGVERSMISMATCH error will be returned); 1 indicates that the out
of range request will be silently ignored.
SVCSET_VERSQUIET
If a request is received for a program number served by this server but
the version number is outside the range registered with the server, an
RPC_PROGVERSMISMATCH error will normally be returned. It is sometimes
desirable to change this behavior. The info argument should be a pointer
to an integer which is either 0 (indicating normal server behavior - an
RPC_PROGVERSMISMATCH error will be returned), or 1 (indicating that the
out of range request should be silently ignored).
svc_create()
The svc_create() function creates server handles for all the transports belonging to
the class nettype. The nettype argument defines a class of transports which can be
used for a particular application. The transports are tried in left to right order
in NETPATH variable or in top to bottom order in the netconfig database. If nettype
is NULL, it defaults to "netpath".
The svc_create() function registers itself with the rpcbind service (see rpcbind(8)).
The dispatch function is called when there is a remote procedure call for the given
prognum and versnum; this requires calling svc_run() (see svc_run() in
rpc_svc_reg(3)). If svc_create() succeeds, it returns the number of server handles
it created, otherwise it returns 0 and an error message is logged.
svc_destroy()
A function macro that destroys the RPC service handle xprt. Destruction usually in-
volves deallocation of private data structures, including xprt itself. Use of xprt
is undefined after calling this routine.
svc_dg_create()
This routine creates a connectionless RPC service handle, and returns a pointer to
it. This routine returns NULL if it fails, and an error message is logged. The
sendsz and recvsz arguments are arguments used to specify the size of the buffers.
If they are 0, suitable defaults are chosen. The file descriptor fildes should be
open and bound. The server is not registered with rpcbind(8).
Warning: since connectionless-based RPC messages can only hold limited amount of en-
coded data, this transport cannot be used for procedures that take large arguments or
return huge results.
svc_fd_create()
This routine creates a service on top of an open and bound file descriptor, and re-
turns the handle to it. Typically, this descriptor is a connected file descriptor
for a connection-oriented transport. The sendsz and recvsz arguments indicate sizes
for the send and receive buffers. If they are 0, reasonable defaults are chosen.
This routine returns NULL if it fails, and an error message is logged.
svc_raw_create()
This routine creates an RPC service handle and returns a pointer to it. The trans-
port is really a buffer within the process's address space, so the corresponding RPC
client should live in the same address space; (see clnt_raw_create() in
rpc_clnt_create(3)). This routine allows simulation of RPC and acquisition of RPC
overheads (such as round trip times), without any kernel and networking interference.
This routine returns NULL if it fails, and an error message is logged.
Note: svc_run() should not be called when the raw interface is being used.
svc_tli_create()
This routine creates an RPC server handle, and returns a pointer to it. The fildes
argument is the file descriptor on which the service is listening. If fildes is
RPC_ANYFD, it opens a file descriptor on the transport specified by netconf. If the
file descriptor is unbound and bindaddr is not NULL, fildes is bound to the address
specified by bindaddr, otherwise fildes is bound to a default address chosen by the
transport.
Note: the t_bind structure comes from the TLI/XTI SysV interface, which NetBSD does
not use. The structure is defined in <rpc/types.h> for compatibility as:
struct t_bind {
struct netbuf addr; /* network address, see rpc(3) */
unsigned int qlen; /* queue length (for listen(2)) */
};
In the case where the default address is chosen, the number of outstanding connect
requests is set to 8 for connection-oriented transports. The user may specify the
size of the send and receive buffers with the arguments sendsz and recvsz; values of
0 choose suitable defaults. This routine returns NULL if it fails, and an error mes-
sage is logged. The server is not registered with the rpcbind(8) service.
svc_tp_create()
The svc_tp_create() function creates a server handle for the network specified by
netconf, and registers itself with the rpcbind service. The dispatch function is
called when there is a remote procedure call for the given prognum and versnum; this
requires calling svc_run(). The svc_tp_create() function returns the service handle
if it succeeds, otherwise a NULL is returned and an error message is logged.
svc_vc_create()
This routine creates a connection-oriented RPC service and returns a pointer to it.
This routine returns NULL if it fails, and an error message is logged. The users may
specify the size of the send and receive buffers with the arguments sendsz and
recvsz; values of 0 choose suitable defaults. The file descriptor fildes should be
open and bound. The server is not registered with the rpcbind(8) service.
