Module Eio_unix.Net
Source
Extended network API with support for file descriptors.
Types
These extend the types in Eio.Net
with support for file descriptors.
Passing file descriptors
val send_msg :
[> `Platform of [> `Unix ] | `Socket | `Stream ] Eio.Std.r ->
?fds:Fd.t list ->
Cstruct.t list ->
unit
Like Eio.Flow.write
, but allows passing file descriptors (for Unix-domain sockets).
val recv_msg_with_fds :
[> `Platform of [> `Unix ] | `Socket | `Stream ] Eio.Std.r ->
sw:Eio.Std.Switch.t ->
max_fds:int ->
Cstruct.t list ->
int * Fd.t list
Like Eio.Flow.single_read
, but also allows receiving file descriptors (for Unix-domain sockets).
fd socket
is the underlying FD of socket
.
Unix address conversions
Note: OCaml's Unix.sockaddr
type considers e.g. TCP port 80 and UDP port 80 to be the same thing, whereas Eio regards them as separate addresses that just happen to have the same representation (a host address and a port number), so we have separate "of_unix" functions for each.
val sockaddr_to_unix :
[< Eio.Net.Sockaddr.stream | Eio.Net.Sockaddr.datagram ] ->
Unix.sockaddr
Creating or importing sockets
val import_socket_stream :
sw:Eio.Std.Switch.t ->
close_unix:bool ->
Unix.file_descr ->
[ `Unix_fd | stream_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
import_socket_stream ~sw ~close_unix:true fd
is an Eio flow that uses fd
.
It can be cast to e.g. source
for a one-way flow. The socket object will be closed when sw
finishes.
The close_unix
and sw
arguments are passed to Fd.of_unix
.
val import_socket_datagram :
sw:Eio.Std.Switch.t ->
close_unix:bool ->
Unix.file_descr ->
[ `Unix_fd | datagram_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
import_socket_datagram ~sw ~close_unix:true fd
is an Eio datagram socket that uses fd
.
The socket object will be closed when sw
finishes.
The close_unix
and sw
arguments are passed to Fd.of_unix
.
val socketpair_stream :
sw:Eio.Std.Switch.t ->
?domain:Unix.socket_domain ->
?protocol:int ->
unit ->
[ `Unix_fd | stream_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
* [ `Unix_fd | stream_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
socketpair_stream ~sw ()
returns a connected pair of flows, such that writes to one can be read by the other.
This creates OS-level resources using socketpair(2)
. Note that, like all FDs created by Eio, they are both marked as close-on-exec by default.
val socketpair_datagram :
sw:Eio.Std.Switch.t ->
?domain:Unix.socket_domain ->
?protocol:int ->
unit ->
[ `Unix_fd | datagram_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
* [ `Unix_fd | datagram_socket_ty ] Eio.Std.r
socketpair_datagram ~sw ()
returns a connected pair of flows, such that writes to one can be read by the other.
This creates OS-level resources using socketpair(2)
. Note that, like all FDs created by Eio, they are both marked as close-on-exec by default.
Private API for backends
getnameinfo sockaddr
returns domain name and service for sockaddr
.
