.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
The parameter
|
||
|
.Fa socket
|
||
|
is a socket.
|
||
|
If it is of type
|
||
|
.Dv SOCK_DGRAM ,
|
||
|
this call specifies the peer with which the socket is to be associated;
|
||
|
this address is that to which datagrams are to be sent,
|
||
|
and the only address from which datagrams are to be received.
|
||
|
If the socket is of type
|
||
|
.Dv SOCK_STREAM ,
|
||
|
this call attempts to make a connection to
|
||
|
another socket.
|
||
|
The other socket is specified by
|
||
|
.Fa address ,
|
||
|
which is an address in the communications space of the socket.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
Each communications space interprets the
|
||
|
.Fa address
|
||
|
parameter in its own way.
|
||
|
Generally, stream sockets may successfully
|
||
|
.Fn connect
|
||
|
only once; datagram sockets may use
|
||
|
.Fn connect
|
||
|
multiple times to change their association.
|
||
|
Datagram sockets may dissolve the association
|
||
|
by calling
|
||
|
.Xr disconnectx 2 ,
|
||
|
or by connecting to an invalid address, such as a null address
|
||
|
or an address with
|
||
|
the address family set to
|
||
|
.Dv AF_UNSPEC
|
||
|
(the error
|
||
|
.Dv EAFNOSUPPORT
|
||
|
will be harmlessly returned).
|
||
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.
|
||
|
Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and the global integer variable
|
||
|
.Va errno
|
||
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
||
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Fn connect
|
||
|
system call will fail if:
