PROLOG <\/a> <\/h2>\n

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer\u2019s Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.<\/p>\n

NAME <\/a> <\/h2>\n

bind \u2014 bind a name to a socket<\/p>\n

SYNOPSIS <\/a> <\/h2>\n

#include <\/p>\n

int bind(int socket<\/i>, const struct sockaddr *address<\/i>,
socklen_t address_len<\/i>);<\/p>\n

DESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\n

The bind<\/i>() function shall assign a local socket address address<\/i> to a socket identified by descriptor socket<\/i> that has no local socket address assigned. Sockets created with the socket<\/i>() function are initially unnamed; they are identified only by their address family.<\/p>\n

The bind<\/i>() function takes the following arguments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

socket<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

Specifies the file descriptor of the socket to be bound.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n\n

address<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

Points to a sockaddr<\/b> structure containing the address to be bound to the socket. The length and format of the address depend on the address family of the socket.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n\n

address_len<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

Specifies the length of the sockaddr<\/b> structure pointed to by the address<\/i> argument.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

The socket specified by socket<\/i> may require the process to have appropriate privileges to use the bind<\/i>() function.<\/p>\n

If the address family of the socket is AF_UNIX and the pathname in address<\/i> names a symbolic link, bind<\/i>() shall fail and set errno<\/i> to [EADDRINUSE]<\/b>.<\/p>\n

If the socket address cannot be assigned immediately and O_NONBLOCK is set for the file descriptor for the socket, bind<\/i>() shall fail and set errno<\/i> to [EINPROGRESS]<\/b>, but the assignment request shall not be aborted, and the assignment shall be completed asynchronously. Subsequent calls to bind<\/i>() for the same socket, before the assignment is completed, shall fail and set errno<\/i> to [EALREADY]<\/b>.<\/p>\n

When the assignment has been performed asynchronously, pselect<\/i>(), select<\/i>(), and poll<\/i>() shall indicate that the file descriptor for the socket is ready for reading and writing.<\/p>\n

RETURN VALUE <\/a> <\/h2>\n

Upon successful completion, bind<\/i>() shall return 0; otherwise, \u22121 shall be returned and errno<\/i> set to indicate the error.<\/p>\n

ERRORS <\/a> <\/h2>\n

The bind<\/i>() function shall fail if:
EADDRINUSE<\/b><\/p>\n

The specified address is already in use.<\/p>\n

EADDRNOTAVAIL<\/b><\/p>\n

The specified address is not available from the local machine.<\/p>\n

EAFNOSUPPORT<\/b><\/p>\n

The specified address is not a valid address for the address family of the specified socket.<\/p>\n

EALREADY<\/b><\/p>\n

An assignment request is already in progress for the specified socket.<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

EBADF<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

The socket<\/i> argument is not a valid file descriptor.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

EINPROGRESS<\/b><\/p>\n

O_NONBLOCK is set for the file descriptor for the socket and the assignment cannot be immediately performed; the assignment shall be performed asynchronously.<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

EINVAL<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

The socket is already bound to an address, and the protocol does not support binding to a new address; or the socket has been shut down.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

ENOBUFS<\/b><\/p>\n

Insufficient resources were available to complete the call.<\/p>\n

ENOTSOCK<\/b><\/p>\n

The socket<\/i> argument does not refer to a socket.<\/p>\n

EOPNOTSUPP<\/b><\/p>\n

The socket type of the specified socket does not support binding to an address.<\/p>\n

If the address family of the socket is AF_UNIX, then bind<\/i>() shall fail if:<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

EACCES<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

A component of the path prefix denies search permission, or the requested name requires writing in a directory with a mode that denies write permission.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

EDESTADDRREQ<\/b> or EISDIR<\/b><\/p>\n

The address<\/i> argument is a null pointer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EIO<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

An I\/O error occurred.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n\n

ELOOP<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

A loop exists in symbolic links encountered during resolution of the pathname in address<\/i>.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

ENAMETOOLONG<\/b><\/p>\n

The length of a component of a pathname is longer than {NAME_MAX}.<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

ENOENT<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

A component of the path prefix of the pathname in address<\/i> does not name an existing file or the pathname is an empty string.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

ENOENT<\/b> or ENOTDIR<\/b><\/p>\n

The pathname in address<\/i> contains at least one non- character and ends with one or more trailing characters. If the pathname without the trailing characters would name an existing file, an [ENOENT]<\/b> error shall not occur.<\/p>\n

ENOTDIR<\/b><\/p>\n

A component of the path prefix of the pathname in address<\/i> names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory, or the pathname in address<\/i> contains at least one non- character and ends with one or more trailing characters and the last pathname component names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory.<\/p>\n\n\n

EROFS<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

The name would reside on a read-only file system.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

ENAMETOOLONG<\/b><\/p>\n
