DESCRIPTION
114
     send(), sendto(), and sendmsg() are used to transmit a message to another
115
     socket.  send() may be used only when the socket is in a connected state,
116
     while sendto() and sendmsg() may be used at any time.
117
 
118
     The address of the target is given by to with tolen specifying its size.
119
     The length of the message is given by len.  If the message is too long to
120
     pass atomically through the underlying protocol, the error EMSGSIZE is
121
     returned, and the message is not transmitted.
122
 
123
     No indication of failure to deliver is implicit in a send().  Locally
124
     detected errors are indicated by a return value of -1.
125
 
126
     If no messages space is available at the socket to hold the message to be
127
     transmitted, then send() normally blocks, unless the socket has been
128
     placed in non-blocking I/O mode.  The select(2) or poll(2) system calls
129
     may be used to determine when it is possible to send more data.
130
 
131
     The flags parameter may include one or more of the following:
132
 
133
     #define MSG_OOB        0x1  /* process out-of-band data */
134
     #define MSG_DONTROUTE  0x4  /* bypass routing, use direct interface */
135
 
136
     The flag MSG_OOB is used to send ``out-of-band'' data on sockets that
137
     support this notion (e.g., SOCK_STREAM); the underlying protocol must
138
     also support ``out-of-band'' data.  MSG_DONTROUTE is usually used only by
139
     diagnostic or routing programs.
140
 
141
     See recv(2) for a description of the msghdr structure.
142
 
143
RETURN VALUES
144
     The call returns the number of characters sent, or -1 if an error
145
     occurred.
146
 
147
ERRORS
148
     send(), sendto(), and sendmsg() fail if:
149
 
150
     [EBADF]            An invalid descriptor was specified.
151
 
152
     [ENOTSOCK]         The argument s is not a socket.
153
 
154
     [EFAULT]           An invalid user space address was specified for a
155
                        parameter.
156
 
157
     [EMSGSIZE]         The socket requires that message be sent atomically,
158
                        and the size of the message to be sent made this
159
                        impossible.
160
 
161
     [EAGAIN]           The socket is marked non-blocking and the requested
162
                        operation would block.
163
 
164
     [ENOBUFS]          The system was unable to allocate an internal buffer.
165
                        The operation may succeed when buffers become avail-
166
                        able.
167
 
168
     [ENOBUFS]          The output queue for a network interface was full.
169
                        This generally indicates that the interface has
170
                        stopped sending, but may be caused by transient con-
171
                        gestion.
172
 
173
     [EACCES]           The SO_BROADCAST option is not set on the socket, and
174
                        a broadcast address was given as the destination.
175
 
176
     [EHOSTUNREACH]     The destination address specified an unreachable host.
177
 
178
     [EINVAL]           The flags parameter is invalid.
179
 
180
     [EHOSTDOWN]        The destination address specified a host that is down.
181
 
182
     [ENETDOWN]         The destination address specified a network that is
183
                        down.
184
 
185
     [ECONNREFUSED]     The destination host rejected the message (or a previ-
186
                        ous one).  This error can only be returned by con-
187
                        nected sockets.
188
 
189
     [ENOPROTOOPT]      There was a problem sending the message.  This error
190
                        can only be returned by connected sockets.
191
 
192
     [EDESTADDRREQ]     The socket is not connected, and no destination
193
                        address was specified.
194
 
195
     [EISCONN]          The socket is already connected, and a destination
196
                        address was specified.
197
 
198
     In addition, send() and sendto() may return the following error:
199
 
200
     [EINVAL]           len was larger than SSIZE_MAX.
201
 
202
     Also, sendmsg() may return the following errors:
203
 
204
     [EINVAL]           The sum of the iov_len values in the msg_iov array
205
                        overflowed an ssize_t.
206
 
207
     [EMSGSIZE]         The msg_iovlen member of msg was less than 0 or larger
208
                        than IOV_MAX.
209
 
210
     [EAFNOSUPPORT]     Addresses in the specified address family cannot be
211
                        used with this socket.
