dump_socket_status(3) LPC Library Functions dump_socket_status(3)
NAME
dump_socket_status() - display the status of each LPC socket
SYNOPSIS
void dump_socket_status( void );
DESCRIPTION
dump_socket_status() is a diagnostic facility which displays
the current status of all LPC sockets configured into the
MudOS driver. It is useful for debugging LPC sockets appli-
cations. Each row in the output corresponds to a single LPC
socket. The first row corresponds to LPC socket descriptor
0, the second row, 1, etc. The total number of sockets is
configured when the driver is built.
The first column "Fd" is the operating system file descrip-
tor associated with the LPC socket. "State" is the current
operational state of the LPC socket. "Mode" is the socket
mode, which is passed as an argument to socket_create().
The local and remote addresses are the Internet address and
port numbers in Internet dot notations. '*' indicates an
address or which is 0. N.B. LPC sockets that are in the
CLOSED state are not currently in use; therefore the data
displayed for that socket may be idiosyncratic.
The following output was generated on Portals, where the
only socket application running at the time was MWHOD. It
indicates that two sockets are current in use, one is
listening for connection requests on a STREAM mode socket.
The other is waiting for incoming data on a DATAGRAM mode
socket.
